Recieved Letter From My Son
I recieved a letter from my AS yesterday. I finally had the courage to open it this morning. He writes that Parole has been denied cuz of what happened at Work Release. He says they plan on maxing him out for $24 worth of stolen steaks. He claims it is way too harsh to give someone 23 months for stealing steaks. That there are drug dealers that ruin people's lives that get less time. He says he needs $800 to hire a lawyer & he has $200 saved & if all 3 of us each put in $200 he can fight it. He begged me not to let him be railroaded.
If this is all true I feel 23 mts for $24 worth of retail theft is way too much time to give anyone. When he puts it like that I want to help him.
Help!
