Help an Indian woman in the US get justice!
Hi friends, this will hopefully only take a few minutes of your time. Please support and save this Indian family
Madhavi, Vinay and their 14 month old son who live near Philadelphia. Vinay, who has an H1-B works as a research technician at a Children’s Hospital while Madhavi is a stay-home mom living a humble and quiet life. Their lives have been shattered last week after Madhavi was falsely charged with causing injuries to a Chinese neighbor’s baby while she was baby-sitting the child.
Madhavi had previously asked the Chinese lady about any signs of injury on the baby which were dismissed as “a scratch” and a recent injury to the head as the baby rolled off the bed. There has been no investigation into whether the injuries may have been caused by the baby’s parents or elsewhere.
Madhavi is being falsely accused- Vinay and Madhavi’s quiet and simple lives have all of a sudden been destroyed- they feel devastated and desperate without any support. They cannot afford a top-notch lawyer to save them either.
We request you to support them in getting justice. Please note, we are not asking you to decide who is innocent, but only to show your support to allow her a fair trial so that justice can be served. Also, any guidance about reference to a good lawyer or any other information is greatly appreciated.

Now, they need our help. This morning we met an attorney (Patrick Artur), who is taking defence to Madhavi's side. He is one of the top criminal attorney in Philly. He says it will cost about 50K to win the case. We know that Vinay and Madhavi can not afford that much money. We need to contribute as much as possible, to get them out of this mess. Please pledge what ever you wish to support. We will collect all the contributions and use towards attorney fees.
Vinay & Madhavi are not in a position to call every one and make a personal appeal. They are completely devastated. Your generous contribution is the only hope for them to get back to normal life.
Please do your best.
I specially request women folks, friends of Madhavi to take the lead on this fundraiser to support them. Please spread the word and collect the contributions locally. We are planning to organize a meeting of friends on Sunday afternoon, to discuss and plan for contributions. I will send details later.
Madhavi & Vinay have preliminary hearing scheduled on Nov 4th Friday.
The Defence attorney is one of the best criminal attorney in Philly. We hope everything will go well and they will be proved not guilty. It will be good if many of us attend the hearing on Friday and support Vinay's family morally.
In order to meet the legal expenses, we should meet and discuss the various options to raise the funds. Our Telugu Association is very supportive and would like to help us for any fundraiser event. A meeting is planned to discuss the following issues:
1. Attending Friday preliminary hearing on Nov 4th Friday, in large numbers
2. Our own individual contributions to support Vinay's family to get through this legal battle.
3. Discuss various other options to raise the funds.
Under this:
(i) contacting various Indian organizations and seek support
(ii) organizing a fund raising event. Ragini garu
