The Sentence We All Serve

By Mrs. Sandra Gonzalez

The Sentence We All Serve
A Memoir by Sandra Gonzalez

When one man is wrongfully convicted,
an entire family carries the weight of his sentence.

For twenty-seven years, Sandra Gonzalez has lived with the pain, silence, and heartbreak of having her father, Roberto De La Cruz Gonzalez, imprisoned for a murder he did not commit.
His absence shaped her childhood, her identity, and her destiny.
This is her story-raw, honest, and filled with the resilience of a daughter who refused to give up.

Growing up between Mexico and Texas, Sandra learned early what loss feels like... and what love can withstand. Through prison visits, ignored evidence, and a justice system that turned its back, she became her father's voice, his advocate, and his strength.

Within these pages, she reveals:

✨ The evidence no one wanted to see
✨ The emotional toll on a family living in constant grief
✨ The nights she almost surrendered to despair
✨ The calling that reminded her God was still working
✨ The moment hope became a plan
✨ The faith that carried them through twenty-seven years of waiting

The Sentence We All Serve is not just a story of injustice-
it is a story of endurance, faith, and the unbreakable bond between a father and his daughter.
It is a reminder that even in darkness,
truth survives...
and one day, when God wills it,
the chains will break.
