This petition is to directed to The New York Department of Corrections, in Alden, New York http://www.jailexchange.com/StatePrisons/New_York/Wende_Correctional_Facility_Inmate_Search.aspx  . We, the people of the world, request that you deny John Winston Lennon's murderer, Mark David Chapman parole in this upcoming week's scheduled parole hearing, August 21st, of 2012. It is in the best interest of Yoko Ono Lennon, and her two sons, Sean and Julian, not to mention the rest of the world, that you keep to keep this man imprisoned in the Wende Correctional Facility for the remainder of his life. The crime that he has committed was of a heinous crime, and should not be granted any parole, ever! Thank you. Sincerely~Prayerwalker Irvine
