Thank you from the bottom of our hearts💔
To every friend, classmate, teammate, and community member who has taken the time to write a letter of support for John’s sentencing — we cannot thank you enough.
Your words mean more than you know. They show Judge Mead the John we all grew up with — the hardworking, kind, and loyal friend who has been such a big part of our lives here in Petersburg.
These letters remind us all how much he is missed and how many people still believe in him.
For context, John a high school senior was originally charged with five serious counts back in early 2022.
After more than four years of this process — including house arrest and now time at Lemon Creek — the jury acquitted him on four of those counts, leaving only one count for sentencing.
Oakley Blue found heaven on earth. Thanks to his human uncle, he spent two days without people rules.
