§ Time Served: 15 years

§ Age at Time of Offense: 58

§ Sentence: 33 Years

§ Release Date: May 23, 2033

Gwendolyn Levi essentially faces two death sentences: she has lung cancer and, at age 74, she is unlikely to outlive her 33-year sentence for a nonviolent drug offense.

Ms. Levi received a virtual life sentence. This harsh sentence is grossly disproportionate to the conduct it seeks to punish. Ms. Levi pleaded guilty to participating in a conspiracy to sell heroin. Her role: she was a low-level drug runner for the conspiracy. In a written agreement, Ms. Levi admitted that she transported and packaged drugs for sale. Her conduct did not involve violence; nor did it involve the use or possession of a weapon.

Ms. Levi is not a danger to the community. At the time of Ms. Levi’s federal conviction at the age of 58, her record consisted of two low-level drug offenses committed years earlier. At the age of 38, she was convicted of misdemeanor drug possession and carrying a weapon without a license; at the age of 51, she was convicted of attempted possession with intent to distribute cocaine.

Ms. Levi has used her time in prison productively, advocating for senior inmates and training to become a dog handler. She also has maintained a nearly spotless disciplinary record. Due to Ms. Levi’s rehabilitative efforts and good behavior, she is housed in a low-security facility. She has undergone extensive cancer treatment and requires costly medical care.

At age 74, Gwendolyn Levi simply wishes to live the remaining years of her life and seek cancer treatment outside of prison.

GWENDOLYN M. LEVI REG. NO. 38311-037 33 -year sentence YEARS

Gwendolyn Levi has maintained a nearly spotless disciplinary record for more than 15 years. She watched her beloved daughter die from cancer, and fought the disease

herself. At age 74, with her own cancer in remission, her 33-year sentence means she is destined to die in prison.

GWENDOLYN M. LEVI

Female ∙ 74 Years Old ∙ Reg. # 38311-037 ∙ FCI Aliceville

Sentence: 33 years

Served: 15½ years

Projected release: May 2033

Offense: Conspiracy to dist. and possess

with intent to dist. drugs

Reasons to Commute Ms. Levi’s Sentence:

• Ms. Levi pleaded guilty to participating in a conspiracy to sell

heroin. In a written agreement, Ms. Levi admitted that she

transported and packaged drugs for sale. Her conduct did not

involve violence; nor did it involve the use or possession of a weapon.

• In her plea agreement. Ms. Levi agreed to cooperate against her co-

defendants, which included her son. At trial, though, Ms. Levi could

not bring herself to testify against her son, leading prosecutors to

seek an enhanced sentence. Ultimately, the court sentenced Ms.

Levi to approximately 33 years’ incarceration – a substantially

greater sentence than she would have received if she had not

entered into and broken the agreement. (The court imposed less

severe penalties upon co-defendants who were equally culpable, and

in some cases more culpable, in the offense than Ms. Levi.)

• At the time of Ms. Levi’s federal conviction at the age of 58, her

record consisted of two low-level offenses committed decades earlier.

At the age of 25, she was convicted of misdemeanor drug possession

and carrying a weapon without a license; at the age of 37, she was

convicted of attempted possession with intent to distribute cocaine.

• Ms. Levi has used her time in prison productively, advocating for

senior inmates and training to become a dog handler. She also has

maintained a spotless disciplinary record. Due to Ms. Levi’s

rehabilitative efforts and good behavior, she is housed in a low-

security facility.

§ Current Age: 74

§ Time Served: 15 years

§ Age at Time of Offense: 58

§ Sentence: 33 Years

§ Federal Offense: Conspiracy to distribute heroin

§ Prior convictions: Possession with intent to distribute,probation (1984); Attempted possession with intent todistribute, 2 years (1996)

§ Medical Issues: Lung cancer (in remission); HeartFailure; Hypertension

§ Release Date: May 23, 2033

Gwendolyn Levi essentially faces two death sentences: she has lung cancer and, at age 74, she is unlikely to outlive her 33-year sentence for a nonviolent drug offense.

Ms. Levi received a virtual life sentence. This harsh sentence is grossly disproportionate to the conduct it seeks to punish. Ms. Levi pleaded guilty to participating in a conspiracy to sell heroin. In a written agreement, Ms. Levi admitted that she transported and packaged drugs for sale. Her conduct did not involve violence; nor did it involve the use or possession of a weapon.

Ms. Levi is not a danger to the community. At the time of Ms. Levi’s federal conviction at the age of 58, her record consisted of two low-level drug offenses committed years earlier. At the age of 38, she was convicted of misdemeanor drug possession and carrying a weapon without a license; at the age of 51, she was convicted of attempted possession with intent to distribute cocaine.

Ms. Levi has used her time in prison productively, advocating for senior inmates. While incarcerated in Maryland, Ms. Levi delivered a Toastmasters keynote speech concerning the aging prison population. Ms. Levi was one of the founding members of "Women of Wisdom" a prisoner-led initiative that hosted wellness fairs, yoga and enrichment events for aging prisoners at the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women. Ms. Levi had an unblemished disciplinary record until 2016 when, while battling cancer at 71 years old, she defended herself during a verbal argument with another inmate. Ms. Levi has two other minor prison infractions for being “out of bounds” in a cell praying with another prisoner and verbal insolence to a staff member. Most tellingly, Ms. Levi was allowed to leave her prison institution on a number of occasions to receive cancer treatment at a local hospital and returned to prison without incident. She has heart failure and undergone extensive cancer treatment and requires costly medical care.

At age 74, Gwendolyn Levi simply wishes to live the remaining years of her life and seek cancer treatment outside of prison. By all recidivist metrics, Gwendolyn's advanced age, her cancer, heart failure and her complete lack of violence, places her at the lowest likelihood of dangerousness and recidivism. She has the support of her loving family, who stand ready and willing to support her reentry. Executive clemency from President Trump would literally save Ms. Levi’s life.

GWENDOLYN M. LEVI REG. NO. 38311-037 SENTENCE: 33 YEARS

Gwendolyn Levi watched her beloved daughter die from cancer, and fought the disease herself. At age 74, with her own cancer in remission, her 33-year sentence

means she is destined to die in prison.

Re-entry Plan Upon her release, Gwendolyn Levi will live with one of her sisters, Rochelle Mariano (a

registered nurse employed for 35 years at Johns Hopkins Medical Center), or Pamela Croxton (a retired housing manager with a 35-year employment record) - both of whom stand ready to welcome her into their homes. Ms. Croxton's address is 4105 Bateman Ave. Baltimore, Maryland 21216. Ms. Mariano's address is 2310 Birch Drive, Gwynn Oak, Maryland 21207.

Ms. Levi’s friend, Alfreda Dawkins who she’s known for 18 years, is uniquely equipped to support Ms. Levi's reentry. Ms. Dawkins is currently employed as the Female Re-Entry Specialist at Bon Secours Community Works in Baltimore, Maryland. Ms. Dawkins has a rich understanding of the various social dynamics and factors that impact formerly incarcerated women and is prepared to provide the support, advocacy, counseling and referrals for Ms. Levi upon her release.

Due to her advanced age and deteriorating health, Ms. Levi will likely rely on social

security benefits rather than securing employment. Ms. Levi has heart failure and Stage II lung cancer, for which she has undergone multiple rounds of chemotherapy and radiation in 2016. Ms. Levi plans to use her time advocating for elderly inmates, continuing the valuable work that she has done over the past decade.

I direct female re-ent[r]y programs here in Maryland…I will do everything on my part by wrapping final medical/transition services around her via the Bon

Secours Medical System here in Baltimore.” - Alfreda Dawkins, 18-year family friend and DMV area re-entry specialist

At the time of sentencing, thegovernment will move to dismiss any open counts against the defendant ©see ¶10ª.

4. The government agrees not to file notice of the defendant’s prior felony drug convictions toenhance the mandatory minimum sentence.

Dear President Obama,

My name is Rochelle and I am writing this letter to ask for clemency for my oldest sister Gwendolyn Levi who is currently a federal inmate who was recently transferred from Maryland to Texas. Gwendolyn is the oldest of 13 children and unfortunately due to her choices in life finds herself at 70 years old dying from Lung Cancer in prison. My mother is 90 years old and before she was moved had been going to see my sister in the infirmary every Saturday to help encourage and provide family love and support as well as several of my sisters and her son. We can’t change our past but we can try to make the best of what time we do have here on earth. I know that Gwen has accepted God as her personal Savior and trust in Him which brings some relief to me and my family. She has actively until her health started failing participated and graduated from Bible College and was taking courses in geriatrics on line to help improve the treatment of the geriatric prison population. Gwen recently lost her daughter less than one year ago to the same cancer that she finds herself battling. As my sister’s health is failing, we are pleading for her release that whatever time she has less can be with her family who will support her and give her the love and care needed. I have been praying to God that he would not let my sister die in prison, but at home surrounded by her family and loved ones.

I am employed as a Registered Nurse with 35 years of experience at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center where I work with patients with many different medical diagnosis and cancer patients. My husband Ronald Mariano and I are also Co- Pastors at a small Church in Woodlawn named Bring Them Out Kingdom Ministries. My husband works as a Site Supervisor for Allied Barton Security. Also

residing in my household is my sister- in- law, M’s Phyllis Mc Cutcheon who retired 2 yrs ago after 30 years working in the Financial Aide department with freshman students at Morgan State University in Baltimore. I am also blessed to be a part of a large family with 5 living generations who will help support and take care of my sister should she be allowed to come live with me, my mother Delories Brock, or my sister Pamela Croxton. We are all active in our family’s lives and church community. We will monitor our sister Gwendolyn closely to assure that she is doing all the law requires upon release. We would not jeopardize our livelihoods, nor that of our families by allowing any behaviors that go against our Christian values and moral integrity, as well as the law. Gwen is aware of this and agrees to comply with the terms of her release.

In closing, we, I am asking that you please grant clemency to my sister Gwenolyn Levi so that she can spend her last days with dignity and quality of life at home surrounded by her family who love her for she has been in prison for years and have worked hard to turn her life around while there.

Respectfully Submitted,

/s

White House Washington DC

CLEMENCY PETITION LETTER FOR GWENDOLYN LEVI, RWT-04-0235

I, Pamela Croxton do hereby write this letter in support of the release of my sister, Gwendolyn Levi from the Federal Prison in Texas.

I am one of 11 sisters and brothers who have been a major support group towards her transitioning in prison while enduring the catastrophic illness of cancer. I have watched my sister transform herself to a person who loves and is committed to the will of GOD. She has turned her life around to better herself and make positive changes in the prison system. I sat in the environment she has to live in while undergoing surgery, chemo and radiation treatments, oxygen machines, extreme loss of weight and constant vomiting and shortness of breath. Her spirit is always great and I look forward to communicating with her because she inspires others but, she looks as if she is barely hanging in there. My fear is that she will die of terminal cancer in jail because no one cared enough to see she no long is in danger of neither breaking the law nor caring for herself properly.

Each visit or telephone my 88 year old mother and host of family and friends watch her deteriorate and listen to her barely breathing at times. I have retired after 35 years of employment with the city government in anticipation to be able to focus on visiting my sister in fear she will die in jail alone however, her transfer from Texas has made it more difficult to life her spirits to fight the beast of cancer.

Please pardon her from prison and let her not have to suffer and die in prison. My sisters, mom and I all are more than willing to allow her to live with us once she is released from prison. My family household profile is as follows:

Relationship to inmate-Sister

Service, Member of Christ United Methodist Church, 40 years of volunteer work with community to include the Enough Pratt Library, Recreation and community organizations.

Member #2 Relationship to Inmate-Niece

Talishiea Croxton, Age 40, International Health Manager at University of Maryland Institute of Human Virology. Member of Christ United Methodist Church. Publications regarding HIV, etc. Outreach and other community volunteer work.

Plans for helping Gwendolyn Levi manage her illness are as follows:

• I have previously had my father and my niece housed with me during their hospice transition home to glory. • I have a very large and strong support network required to assist Gwendolyn with her illness which includes a

brother who is a counselor, pastor of a church, a sister who is has over 35 years of experience as a registered head nurse with citations and recognitions. My daughter who lives with me has two degrees in Public Health and works with immune deficiencies overseeing international labs for the University of Maryland in Baltimore City.

• Our 5 generational families care for all family members and constantly support and encourage positive change that benefits all mankind. Our faith is in GOD and we never give up on each other. We are no non-sense when it comes to the wellbeing of each other and through counseling we now know how to help and not enable.

• My mom, sister and I all have homes equipped with a first floor bedroom and full bathroom. We have used wheelchair, portable toilets, etc. available from the previous use for other family members.

• We are less than 10 minutes from several hospitals and medical facilities. • I have the time to take any additional training and assist any care provider nurses if needed.

Plans for helping Gwendolyn Levi avoid re-offending:

• Inmates leave a trickled down affect family members and friends must endure and our family have taken educational and personal interest in combating any injustice that harms the quality of life for all.

• We have drug counselors who are family members, friends, and networks from the prison system where Gwendolyn was transferred from that are ready and waiting to continue her counseling treatment.

• We very selective in who enters our surrounding to protect and ensure we continue to unite under GOD to do the will of GOD.

In conclusion, no one should suffer from the painful illness of cancer while being incarcerated in that it is impossible for them to have the mindset, best of care, and surroundings needed to heal or transition properly. We just loss Gwendolyn’s only daughter to cancer this year, watching my 88 year old mother look at her daughter wither away in pain and suffering is very painful for the family and we pray that GOD touches the heart of all with authority to release her.

God be with you,

Pamela Croxton
