Eric Thompson was fired from his position as sociology professor at Moreno Valley College (MVC) for challenging his students to think critically. He encouraged lively discussions from different angles about gay marriage, sexuality, family and other social issues of our day. The MVC administration investigated him wrongly three separate times and eventually fired him. Eric contacted PJ for free legal help, and we challenged the administration, protected his civil rights and won back his job.
