| 409 | Anonymous | I agree with the earn their release program. |
| 410 | Angela Vaughn | I am trying to help my childrens father, Daniel A. Morefield, inmate no.N66257-2A-20, currenetly serving an 8 yr. sentence at Big Muddy Correctional Center, in Ina, Il. for criminal sexual assault/ felont. The only reason he is there is because he has no finances to appeal or fight back. The state has a extremely, very weak case against him, and no real evidence. He has not been able to see our three children for 3 1/2 yrs. He has missed two of our childrens 8th grade graduations. He needs help. If he had decent legal representation, and someone to re-open his case, they would find they could easily overturn his sentence, and conviction. I have tried frree, reduced, or pro-bono, none of them take on criminal cases. Please help, he deserves to be with his children, he is not a threat to society, and could be released back into society safely. |

| 414 | Anonymous | Not all incarcerated inmates are not bad, they made mistakes, wrong decisions. Who hasn't, just these mistakes, wrong decisions hurt people. Illinois prisons have 72% failure rate, who's fault is that the inmates? not quite you need to look into the source of the problem called (staff) counselors do not have degrees all they have to do is be an officer, answer 150 questions an presto they are certified. what's wrong with this picture? you decide. |

| 416 | Cheryl | Prisoners who have completed various programs i.d. eductional and vocational, etc., should be given a second chance in life. We truly do have some innocent people serving 25+ yrs for crimes they did not commit. There needs to be a way for a prisoner who has shown growth within prison walls, to be released to prove that they are a vital part of society. |

| 418 | Felicia G. Kennedy | In order to judge whether someone has been rehabilitated or not, we have to give them the opportunity to show that in each case. |

| 428 | Laura | Life without parole is a cruel and unusual misfit in the judicidal systeml; it does not facilitate or engender rehabilitation, guarantees tax burdens for over crowded prisons, and in certain instances where sentencing may have been overly harsh, provides for judicial destitution. This system must be reformed; and there must be a pradigm shift to rehabilitation and social accountability. Life without Parole should be reserved for those serial killers, serial offenders and child rapists. There needs to be a considered option for parole especially for offenders with 20 years or more served, who are over the age of 50; statistically shown by research to no longer be a threat to the community at large.
This Draconian effort to sweep slices of society under the rug is nothing more than window dressing a sentence of condemnation.
Life without parole is cruel and unusual punishment, and a blight on our judicial system. It should be repealed and inmates should be categorically re-assessed for parole.
If one stops to think about this with any conscience, they would not be able to sleep.
Those who want to cut tax burdens need to look at alternatives which provide opportunity as well as rehabilitation. Life without parole should be repealed and Parole Reform should be top of the list. |

| 431 | Jacinta Terry | This is an absolute must. At some point in time a person that commits a crime in their 20's is not the same person committed to dying in prison because of a mistake. Everyone deserves a second chance - especially for non violent offenses. |
