The board officially denied his parole request so he stays behind bars where he belongs and honestly I am shaking just typing this because I really did not think they would actually listen to us. My head is spinning a bit but seeing all 969 of you behind this really …
On October 19, 1981 the young life of Bonnie Sue Mitchell of Lynn, Massachusetts was literally extinguished by the hands of her ex-boyfriend, George "Chris" MacNeill. She was fifteen years old. Convicted of First Degree Murder for the strangulation of Bonnie Sue, George Christopher MacNeill was to spend his life in jail without parole. Due to a ruling by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court on December 24, 2013, MacNeill is now eligible for parole because he was a minor at the time of the murder, and charged as an adult. This heinous crime was premeditated and planned, and actually bragged about to his friends after it was committed. When his friends expressed doubt, MacNeill brought them to see Bonnie's lifeless body, and proceeded to poke and prod her to see if she was indeed dead. As you can imagine, Bonnie's family is devastated at the prospect of his release. A single and solitary solace all these years has been the knowledge that George "Chris" MacNeill would pay for taking Bonnie's life by living the remainder of his life in jail. Please join us in keeping this killer where he belongs by signing this petition to protest his parole and potential release.
I honestly never thought this would gain so much ground but looking at all these names really feels like a shift is finally happening. It is just overwhelming to see that Bonnie Sue is still remembered by so many people who did not even know her personally because that kind of support means everything to her family right now.

I'm Bonnie Sue's aunt. When the court system gave this man life with no chance of parole, what did that mean? He planned her murder and carried it out, why should he be reprieved? She'll never have that opportunity.

I am signing because bonnie was a friend of mine. Chris strangled bonnie and not only showed NO REMORSE, he brought friends of his to gawk and laugh at her lifeless body. George Chris Macneil should NEVER be paroled. He took a precious life, so he should pay with his own.

minor or not, it was a premeditated and heinous crime. Who's to say that if he wasn't caught that he wouldn't have done it to another girl. He took a life, he doesn't deserve one.

He was a man, not a child! He planned executed the crime and boasted to friends! He should never be released back ino society! His friends should be held responsible to some degree as well if they did not notify the police of this crime! He should be in solitary confinement for the rest of his life!
