ENOCH,

Gladys and Jamie Scott are returning home for the first time in 16 years.

This evening, Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour suspended their sentences -- handed down in the extreme and biased ruling of Judge Marcus Gordon that condemned each of the women to double life sentences for an $11 robbery.

The moment I landed in Jackson, Mississippi, Governor Barbour called to tell me about the suspension. And as I prepare to meet with him tomorrow, along with Derrick Johnson, President of the Mississippi State Conference of the NAACP,

I want to be clear about one thing: This vindication is because of you, Enoch.

The Scott sisters have read your notes and letters of support.Thanks,

Benjamin Todd Jealous
President and CEO
NAACP
