People in jail kill me always and so does their supporters. What about the victims, or those of us that never been to jail. If you commit a crime do the time and stop crying. All you hear is pray pray...lots of time they kill their victims, did their victims have time to pray? They get 3 squares, can earn a degree, buff up, watch TV, and get free medical and dental care. Sounds like college with extra great benefits. Yet hard working Americans walk around with bad teeth, sending their kids to community colleges while millions go to baby sit criminal in air conditioned and heated cells. I don't feel sorry for them. They aren't paying any bills. Pray for me, feel sorry for me. I work and pay my own bills, save for my kids college, husband in Iraq. Put braces on my own kid. I need a tooth worked on. But I know right from wrong. I'm not hurting anyone to get money or things I would like, I'm working. Stop taking up for them. They did it to themselves!!!!!!

Pray for him ,,yes , but the fact is he did something wrong, and thats why he is in custody . Now hes doing something wrong again and we should just let him get away with it ? this is why these criminals continue to do wrong , no harsh punishment . If we would just stop babysitting these guys and make them do honest,hard-time maybe ,just maybe they will think twice about being habitual offenders

It is very easy for someone to share their opinion but until you really know what was on that mans mind you have no clue what was going through his head. We all from the corrupt society that we live in are quick to past their judgement. Take a minute and pray for him instead of saying he should get more time. If he was being supervised like he should have been this could had been prevented.good job DOC
