The parole board has decided to keep the assailant behind bars. I am truly stunned by the outcome and I know this only happened because all of you chose to stand with Gayle. Please keep holding onto this sense of community as we watch to ensure our safety remains a …

Gayle Wolfer Sprague is an agent in the Howard Hanna Arcade (NY) office. On March 25, 1988, Gayle Wolfer Sprague was shot three times, along with her client, by Edward Beauford Cutner. The assailant’s intent was to kill Gayle and likely would have been successful if his gun had not misfired. Gayle’s assailant was sentenced to prison in 1989. He is up for parole this year and Gayle is scheduled to attend a victims’ meeting before the parole board on April 6, 2018. The more signatures Gayle can gather, the better chance that her assailant will not be granted parole. Please join us in signing the petition to keep Cutner in prison so that Gayle and others in the community can feel safe.

I checked the page this morning and saw that over one hundred people have added their names. This is much further than I ever imagined we would get on our own. It is truly your presence and your willingness to help Gayle that created this momentum.

Please keep this monster in jail. Gayle was a great friend of my late mother and she did not deserve any of this. She was just doing her job as a realtor. She went through so much rehab and major repair to her face. This creep will do it again if you let him out.

Anyone who commits a violent felony such as the one in question, will do it again. My 23 years of experience in law enforcement taught me that rule of thumb.. Do not honor his act by releasing him.

As a fellow Realtor, I feel threatened and vulnerable knowing a convicted felon who attempted to murder two individuals may possibly be released. I urge you to deny parole to Mr. Cutner so that the community will feel safer without Mr. Cutner being out and about.

Real estate agents are at risk everyday. This man has an anger in him that caused him to do this. Not add the anger of being in jail. His intent was to kill. I don’t believe that anger just disappeared. I humbly request that you protect society and do not grant him parole.

I. Covered this story for the local .newspaper. This guy showed no remorse and also served in the sheriff's poss. Ee, thought he was above the law. Gayle Haas suffered a permanent sentence. So should he!
