Michael VonAllmen
After his discharge from the Navy, Mike VonAllmen lived full-throttle in his hometown of Louisville, KY until he was wrongfully convicted of rape in 1983. He was paroled in 1994 and quietly re-entered society. Michael re-established himself as a husband, a father and an employee. Sixteen years later, the Kentucky Innocence Project found the true perpetrator, and he was exonerated in 2010. Michael has found a second wind in life by being able to advocate against the death penalty and for the convicted felon.
