Edrick Faust is a small business owner, father, fiancé, and longtime resident of Athens, Georgia. Well known by his fellow citizens, he would be the first to tell you the best spot downtown to grab a burger. However, his world was turned upside down after a sudden arrest in 2024 while he was going through his normal weekly activities. He was shocked to learn that he had been mistakenly linked to a twenty-five-year-old cold case. After a lengthy wait and trial, Mr. Faust was convicted.

Mr. Faust's supporters, family, and friends are accepting donations which will be used to employ one of the top appellate firms in the country. Said donations will be used to pay legal fees for trial counsel and retained appellate counsel to challenge this miscarriage of justice in the Supreme Court of Georgia.

Your kindness and donations will help overturn this travesty and allow Mr. Faust the opportunity to receive a fair trial.

This fund is irrefutable evidence of the public's continued support for Mr. Faust and the undeniable tragedy of his trial. In the court of public opinion, he has been treated as a sacrificial lamb to obscure the carelessness of law enforcement and feed the ego of the state. They are attempting to smother justice to hide glaring, systemic issues of a broken system. 

Edrick Faust is entitled, through the Constitution of the United States, to a fair trial, and has been denied his rights at every turn. Our fight does not end here, and his legal team will proceed with passion to return Mr. Faust home to his family.
