Help Jessi Whaley Fight for Her Life: Wrongfully Accused**

**To our community, friends, and kind strangers,**

We are writing today with a desperate plea for our daughter, sister, and friend, 31-year-old Jessi Whaley. Her life, once full of promise and light, has been shattered by a devastating and wrongful accusation that we know she is not guilty of.

Jessi has been charged with distribution of fentanyl leading to death. We are heartbroken by the tragedy of this loss, and our deepest sympathies go out to the family and friends of the victim. However, we are certain that Jessi had no involvement in this horrible event. She is a compassionate, gentle, and loving person who has never intentionally harmed a soul. This accusation is a complete contradiction to the person we all know and love.

The fight against fentanyl is a national priority, and law enforcement is working tirelessly to hold dealers accountable. In their aggressive pursuit of justice, however, we believe an innocent person has been caught in the crossfire. The pressure to secure convictions in fentanyl-related cases is immense, and without the resources for a powerful legal defense, an innocent person stands no chance against the full force of the government.

A conviction for this crime carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 20 years to life. We cannot let Jessi, a woman who is a victim of circumstance, lose her freedom for something she did not do.

Right now, the financial burden is overwhelming. The cost of hiring a skilled private attorney who can dedicate the time and expertise this complex case requires is astronomical. Public defenders are often overloaded, and in a federal case like this, you need a legal team that can fight relentlessly.

We are asking for your help to raise funds for Jessi’s legal defense. Your donation will go directly towards:

*   Hiring an experienced federal defense lawyer to prove her innocence.
*   Covering investigation costs to uncover the truth of what happened.
*   Expert witness fees and other critical court expenses.

No amount is too small. Every dollar brings us closer to bringing Jessi home and clearing her name. If you are unable to donate, please share this campaign with your network. Your prayers, positive energy, and words of encouragement mean the world to us and to Jessi.

Please help us fight for Jessi’s freedom. She is counting on us, and we are counting on you.

Thank you for your kindness and support during this impossible time.

With gratitude,
The Whaley Family and Friends
