Well, yeah.... The women weren't given life without parole so that means that they are being victimized by the system... Both have been model prisoners... I mean, if you have a system that allows for folks to be repentant and to be rahabilitated and you just ignore the system in some cases, regardless of the prisoners actions, then why have the system at all... I don't like the politics that is being played here...
Like I said, if they wanted these women to die in prison they should have sentenced them accordingly... They didn't... That means that given good behavior and all the stuff that prisoners are supposed to do to get paroled then these two women, inparticular, are not being treated fairly... It somehow smacks of Third World dictatorships where the rules change daily... We are either a country of law or we aren't... If we are then these two women would have made parole, based on their behavior in prison, a long time ago...
