Maybe you can help me with some advice... My husband was wrongfully incarcerated and I contacted our local govenor's office about the situation, because from where i am from it is the "good ole boys system", and I couldn't get anywhere with the prosecutor or judge, and the attorney we had didn't present the evidence right. When i emailed the govenor's office I never expected a response back from them, well i got the call i never expected. The gentleman at the govenor's office told me to call the Center Director where my hubby is at and explain to him what happened and see if there was some way that he could get the matter resolved and get him released. Here is my dilemma, I am scared to contact the Center Director, because one I don't want to lose my visits with him since I haven't seen him since June 10th because they transferred him. Two... I don't want the Center Director thinking that I am just whining and complaing to get my husband out, but everything that I have to say is the actual truth of what happened and how he was sentenced unjustly. The govenor's office told me that if I do not get anywhere with the director to call him back and he would go another avenue with it. I hope that you can maybe could point me in the right direction.
Thanks

Wow I am amazed that you got a response. That just goes to show you that many of the recent problems stemmed from Huckabee and his people not the system. I don't know your situation but you must do what is right in your heart. Sometimes doing the right thing can be painful and has a cost attached to it. My question to you is are you willling to pay the price for telling the truth? Good luck. Pray about it and do what you think is right and it will work out for the best. It may not seem that way now but in the big picture, for me anyway, it always has.



Good luck and keep us updated.

Thanks Finally for the kind words. I haven't contacted the Center Director as I have felt that it would probably not be a good idea at this time. My husband has been working on commutation and pardon papers that we got from the Arkansas Parole Board before he went in to serve his time back in June. I just received the papers, it states in there that I can write a letter of support and have other write a letter supporting him. I have read other supporting letters and they state the accomplishments that their loved ones has done while being in, my husband has only been at DCC not even 30 days yet, it will be on the 13th. We are asking for the pardon be considered on the Breaking and Entering Charges that stemmed from 4 years ago. The fines, court costs, restitution and all other obligations were met on these charges. What do I state in my letter?
