I am writing to get this out there to the public,reguarding my brother who has been incarcerated for 13 years of his life. A parole agent came and checked his home in which he was planning on paroling out to. the agent approved everything,which made him and his family excited that he was finally coming home,and then he seen the parole board again this week, And he has been in front of the board 6 times and the first one gave him a 24 month defer,the second time they gave him a 12 month defer,third time they gave him a 11 month,fourth time a 11 month,fifth time 10 month,and now they are giving him a 8 month,they keep saying he hasnt served enough time for his punishment. Since he has been locked up he has lost our mother,grandfather,uncle,aunt,great grandmother who have all passed away. When our mother passed away he lost the only person who has ever been there for him threw all the bad times and since he was locked up he couldnt even be there for her when she passed away. As his family we just feel that we are getting let down each and every time because he is always told that he has not served enough time for his punishment. And he never gets any other explanation except for the same things everytime. They don't even consider how well he has been since he has been in there or how well he has done over the past 13 years and he is not a risk to the public at all and has never hurt anybody at all in his whole life. Why are we paying taxes for prisoners that do not belong there.
Cons: they don't listen to how well the inmate has achieved
