Fighting 4 Freedom is advocating for the release of Larry Capers through the parole process. Larry Capers has spent the past 30 years behind bars, serving a life sentence plus 116 years after entering prison at just 18 years old.
Thirty years, and a body of work
Despite the harsh reality of his circumstances, Larry has cultivated an incredible artistic talent, using his gift to create powerful and thought-provoking artwork. His pieces reflect both the struggles and resilience of a life confined, offering a glimpse into his world through vivid colors and intricate details.
Larry's art stands as a testament to the human spirit's ability to find beauty even in the darkest places, and his work continues to inspire those who encounter it.
Where the case stands
Larry is eligible to be considered for parole. Our work on his behalf is the work of building the record the board will read: the programming completed, the disciplinary history, the letters of support, and a release plan that answers the questions a board asks before it says yes.
