Justice for Savory is about an innocent man's quest to clear his name.

When Johnnie Lee Savory was 14 years old, he was falsely accused and unjustly convicted of a double homicide in his hometown of Peoria, Illinois. In 2006, after spending 30 years in prison, Savory was granted parole and released.

Though a free man today, society still considers Savory an ex-felon, which is why he is asking Illinois' governor for a full pardon based on his actual innocence and to order DNA testing of the evidence that was used to convict him.
