We Need Your Help
The Clinton Young Foundation helps people who are wrongfully convicted of capital murder in Texas by offering legal representation and advocacy work. We only offer our services in both the pretrial, trial, and post-conviction phase. We never let our clients pay for our services.
The Foundation got its name from former death-sentenced individual Clinton Young. With our help, Clinton was able to get out on bond in January 2022 after his conviction and death sentence were overturned in September of 2021. Clinton is the first person whose death sentence was overturned to make it out on bond while awaiting a new trial.
