Circle of Support - 08/06

Join Thomas Clardy, the Tennessee Innocence Project at the Ebeneezer Missionary Baptist church on Wednesday, August 6 at 7:00 p.m. for a circle of support for Thomas.

Recently, the State of Tennessee filed a motion seeking Thomas Clardy’s return to prison after being released in 2023 by a U.S. District Court. The State of Tennessee’s motion comes after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Clardy’s appeal of a January 2025 Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decision that reversed the district court’s 2023 order overturning his conviction, leaving him in limbo about his continued freedom.

Clardy’s case has been remanded to the federal district court for additional litigation. Meanwhile, Clardy’s attorneys have filed two clemency petitions - a petition for exoneration and a petition for commutation. Governor Bill Lee has the executive power to grant either one.
