Dear Crystal C,
Hello, Hello, Hello, How Are You??
I do hope and pray that this via letter reaches you and finds you in good health & spirits. I wanted you to know that I appreciated you and thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking time out of your busy schedules to write me a support letter for my Board of Parole Hearing, Thank You!! The letter was beautiful and very professional, like a lawyer or something… are you???? Well, to shared with you the happy and scary feelings I experienced through the hearing and especially when the board panel said that they founded me suitable and granted for release. I was more scared than feeling happy. I was scared and feeling alone/lonely. Yeah, cause you know, I have been incarcerated for 32 years, 1990 I came in the prison system at the young age of 17 and I lost my grandma, and then last year 2022 I had lost my mother and my older sister. I really have no one, no wife, no kids, that I can depend on to help me & show me around the system & life out there. You know? I’m going to need a lot of help & hope you wouldn’t mind. And today it’s May 21st, so I got like 104 more days to hear from the Governor with my release date. God’s willing I’ll be a free man out there in society. Well I’m going to bring this to close for now and hope to hear from you soon. May you have a wonderful day and please be safe out there. Take Care.
Sincerely,
