1	kathy morse	Susan should be released immediately. She does not pose a threat to society. She should be allowed to go home to her family immediately. Michigan tax dollars should not be spent to transport, house and prosecute her.
2	Jerry Morse	I believe Susan LeFevre should have her sentenced commuted. She has spent the last 32 years of her life being a positive role model. She has done community service work. She has raised 3 productive children and been a supportive wife.
3	Michael	To the people who are in this w/o sin. Let them cast the first stone. This is to all the ones who have tarnished badges or stains on their robes. If you hide behind the law you will not hide behind the One who gave you that position and authority. Give Susan some community time, put her on probation, pay a fine. Then be done with it. Then let her live the rest of her days w/o having to look over her shoulder. I believe the lifetime of that anxiety is prison enough. Just look at all the lost revenue from her and taxpayer money toward her. Susan, God has forgiven you if you asked Him. Go and sin no more. Now maybe the law will drop their stones.

7	Chris Gorman M.D.	Susan has devoted her life to helping others and raising a fantastic family. Incarcerating her is just another wasted tax burden.
8	Margie Gonzalez	Free Marie

10	Carli Blum
11	Ann Stitzer
12	Rita Valentine	Marie Walsh has more than paid her debt by having a heavy heart for 32 years, but has managed to raise 3 beautiful children, has a devoted husband & is a model citizen. Please take this time to be compassionate & understanding & free Marie so she can resume the rest of her life in peace.
13	Alan Wise	Marie Walsh is a great member of society and should not have to revert back to her life 32 years ago. She has been rehabilitated and poses no threat to anyone. Let her get back to her life in California and back to her wonderful family.

18	Cindy Reynolds	Marie Walsh is a productive member of society and has shown to be rehabilitated. She absolutely poses no threat to anyone. Let her stay with her husband and family in California.
19	Diane R Wilson	community service to the children of drug abusers would help Susan and the children
20	anna	Give Marie Walsh CLEMENCY!!!!!!! This is totally insane- She is my very good friend!
21	Erica Leyenaar	Marie Walsh is in no way a threat to society. She has been a wonderful mother, wife, neighbor, and family friend for the past 32 years. She has already given back to the community and is a great member of society. She DOES NOT deserve to be locked up in jail. Going to jail would only reverse the progress she has made. It would hurt her more then benefit her and make her become a criminal. She is not a criminal, she is a wonderful woman. She should be with her family and kids. Do not ruin her life, her kids, and everybody who knows her including myself.
22	Howard Rupp	She has suffered enough. She is now a good citizen. So a good time to forgive.
23	Nicole Stromsness
24	Anonymous	many of us did foolish and stupid things in our youth. Susan should be set free. Society will only be hurt by sending her back to prison. Mickey Taylor

26	Anonymous	what's up with not posting my comments?
27	Susan M. Stern	I believe a person should be judged by how they have lived their lives as responsible adults for the past 30 years rather than for how they made a big mistake when they were 19. Please free Susan LeFevre
28	shelly hanlon
29	Anonymous	Free Her !!
30	F. Schermer	The situation Susan LeFevre is going through right now shows how correctness of paperwork is not at all identical to our deeply felt desire for justice.
31	David Schultz
32	Anonymous	justice will not be served by her imprisonment
33	glenn bosworth	she was railroaded.....her parents failed her...the DA lied to her.......its time to correct the inequity of the people on the so called "right side of the law"......let her go.....

35	Anonymous	She was 19! It was a ridiculous judgement to begin with. I dont condone drug dealing, use or want drug users or dealers on the streets but being a San Diego resident do not think Susan LeFevre poses any threat to our communtiy. She has proven to be a productive member of society and most likely would not have been had she served 10-20 years in jail at 19 years old! There are many worse criminals to be going after. Oh wait we cant find them because the are ILLEGAL!!!!
36	Jennifer C	This is not a individual who would be described as a "career criminal" or a threat to society. This is a model citizen, and it would be a shame and insult to tax payers to spend money on incarcerating Susan when those funds can be used to jail the real criminals in our society!
37	Bill P.	I had the privilege of teaching one of Susan's (Marie's) daughters in elementary school in California. I always found Marie to be a caring and supportive mother who volunteered in her community. Placing Mrs. Walsh back in prison will serve no purpose except to add another conviction "notch" to the belts of Michigan prosecutors. Mrs. Walsh has obviously reformed herself from her earlier negative situation and has paid back society.

39	PJ Granieri	I am showing support for Susan LeFevre due to the life she has lead here in California an I also feel statues of limitations should be granted for her freedom. I could see if she were a danger, she was a teen and made a mistake. What Susan's life is like now and since her escapse thanks to Grandpa, God Bless him should be taking into consideration. Compassionately PJ Granieri

42	Teresa Marlatt	I support Susan & her family. FREE SUSAN!! She has lived in fear for over 30 years. I watched her interview on 10 news San Diego.
43	Dolores & Jim Wellborn	Susan LeFevre Marie Walsh) is not a threat to society. Prison supposedly rehabilitates criminals and obviously Susan Lefevre is not in need of rehabilitation. As a taxpayer we need to spend our money wisely and incarcerate murderers, rapists and child molestors not citizens like Susan who made a youthful mistake. Please release Susan immediately & stop spending taxpayers money so foolishly. Thank you, Dolores & Jim Wellborn
44	Anonymous	No crimes have been committed in 32 years. No additional time served would make any difference, Remeber she has raised three drug free kids. Isn't that enough towards community service? Why waste tax payers money? What would additional time in prison prove? Do you know of anyone who has suffered because she grown up to be adult ? Who took responsibility for her? SHE DID! So is the State going to go after her grandfather? Or the person who dimed her off ? Should they be considered for harboring a fugitive? This is a no brainer!
45	RUTH FOSTER	LEAVE THIS WOMAN ALONE...SET HER FREE...WE NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE REAL CRIMES WE HAVE IN AMERICA.....THIS WOMAN HAS TURN HER LIFE AROUND, SHE IS A WIFE , A MOTHER AND A CITIZEN THAT THE COMMUNITY THINK HIGHLY OF.....HOPE AND PRAY THAT THEY WILL PARDON HER AND LET HER GO HOME TO HER FAMILY WHERE SHE BELONGS....NOT IN PRISON!!!!!!!!
46	jodie	We lived in Carmel Valley for 5 + years, my daughter went to school with one of Marie's children. Many "comments" in the San Diego Union Tribune are ridiculous. Lots of "sour grapes". No way a sentence imposed in the 70's is applicable today. It is my hope that her sentence can be modified to community service or something like it.
47	Carla Uphaus	I am drawn to comment because of several similarities between Susan and myself. I moved from MI to San Diego in 2006 Susan and I are the same age We both experienced the drug culture of the 70's I have also raised a family to be proud of (a police officer, a probations officer, an officer in the Air Force, and a realtor) *We have both been successful in our careers/life and contribute to society However, there is one big difference between Susan and myself (and most of the other people our age) - I didn't get caught. I realize that laws and rules are necessary for a safe functional society. I could also argue it would not be fair to other people that are following the rules or did the time they were given. Hwever, I lived in MI all my life and I know there are better ways to spend the little bit of money and resources they have left. Drugs were rampant back then. I have read the articles and heard the interviews - please don't tell me that anyone believes she was a major dealer in the Saginaw area at 19 years old! I have been to Saginaw - it took more than teen age dealers to get that city in the shape it is in. It was the 70's. All users "dealt" to get drugs for our personal use. At 19 there had to be a lot of fear and being naive to her choices available in the legal system when she was confronted by the police. Susan has lived with fear for a lot of years. She had to give up her immediate family and her identity. That is a huge sentence in itself. There must be a way to clean up this mess that would seem fair to the justice system, her inocent family and society. Charity work? Money from publicity going to MI prison system? Mandatory talks at high schools? I am sure if the brain power of the MI officials were pooled they could come up with a sentence that makes sense for everyone. Going by the book is just an lazy cop out sometimes and this would be one of those times. I really hope for the best for Susan and her family. Getting this cleaned up will probably do them all a lot of good and give her a sense of peace she didn't even know existed. Best of luck to all concerned.

49	Mikael Backlund	Marie (Susan) has been a friend of my family for over twenty years. She is one of the finest people we know and it would be a disservice to the community to detain such an outstanding citizen. Further sentencing would be solely for the sake of punishment and would not in any way make for a safer country/state/community at large. Therefore, it would be unecessary and detrimental to do so.
