The Blame Game: Is it racism or justice?

The story of Tennessean Pamela Moses receiving a six-year prison sentence for submitting a form with incorrect information while trying to regain her voting rights begins with her past criminal record and ends with a judge who did not believe her.Yes, she was on probation for a prior felony conviction, including a 2015 conviction for tampering with evidence. But she believed her probation had ended, a probation officer told her she was actually done with her felony probation, records show. The probation officer signed off on her certificate of restoration to vote. Ms. Moses was charged with perjury. She was charged and sentenced to years in prison! There's so much more to this story, such as taxpayers' money, politics and Ms. Moses' family. This had to be traumatic for all involved in her life.  Donald Kirk Hartle, a white Republican voter, was charged with 2 counts of voter fraud in Las Vegas after he forged his dead wife’s signature to vote with her ballot.  He was sentenced in November to one year of probation.Traumatic you ask, a resounding yes!  Is it racism or injustice? A resounding Yes to both!Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral, physical, and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. Please be aware that it is okay to ask for help.
