Hello my name is Crystal Conley I am writing a petition to try to help my sister (Wendy Sprouse) who is serving a 22 1/2 year sentence for embezzlement for a non violent crime. She is at the Virginia Correctional Center for Women.She has paid the entire restitution; she served 1/3 of her time (6years) all ready. Wendy knows what she did was wrong and is very sorry for her actions.She is not a bad person, she just made some bad choices in which she is paying for. She has missed so much over the passed 6 years that she realized the hurt she has caused everyone. I feel like the time she received was severe. She did not commit a violent crime against anybody or murder anyone, but she still received the punishment that a violent crime or a murderer would have gotten. In my heart I feel like the time she has served has changed her life. Give her a chance to make it right.

The momentum behind Wendy's release is undeniable and it proves that people see the cruelty in this excessive sentence. The Virginia Department of Corrections cannot ignore our demand for justice much longer.

The justice system is nothing but a money raking scheme.. They do not do nothing to try and help u become a better citizen.. All they do is lock people up and steal money from our hard working families.. prison and jails are one big warehouse.. They lock you up and throw away the key.. The longer they keep you locked up . The longer they have a job .. it’s called job security.

I think this has been a gross injustice even if I didn’t know Wendy just on the fact that there are so many other cases where people got off scot free...see the Richmond times dispatch article dated May 29, 2020 the title is bookkeeper gets 6 years in theft of nearly 720,000 . The best part of the article is where it states 6 years is equivalent basically to 720,000 bc all she has told oay
