Ernie King was my friend and schoolmate. He was murdered brutally by Robert Anderson Spedding. Spedding should NOT be out of prison. He should remain there for the rest of his miserable life. Please, deny his paroll.....this man should not be on the streets. Thank you.

Please do not release this individual. He is not deserving of parole. He murdered a husband and father of two. This was a HATE CRIME! Spedding stated that he thought Ernie King was a homosexual.

Spedding is an animal that needs to spend the rest of his days in a cage. Governor Brown needs to do the right thing here. Reject this murdering scum’s parole. Do not release him back into society where he will continue to kill and terrorize other innocent souls. Ernie was one the sweetest and most righteous people I have had the pleasure to call a friend. Ask anyone in the Soquel High School Class of 1968 and they will tell the same story. Ernie was a good man whose life was cut way too short. Governor Brown, this one is a no brainer. Please do not approve this parole decision. We plead with you to formally reject the parole of Spedding on behalf of Ernie’s family, friends and humanity.

Given the nature of this man's crime it is appalling that anyone could think this man is rehabilitated. If there is to be justice for the victim this man must stay in prison and pay for the terrible waste he created for himself and others.

such a senseless and vile act! Please, no parole.

Neither rehabilitation nor mercy is indicated in this case of hateful, capricious violence. Justice is not served by releasing Robert Spedding.

Brutal crime the public would not be safe upon his release. Governor Brown please reject and do not release. Ernie was a gentle kind person '
