I pray for the victims of the crime. Why dont you all pray for the people your husbands, boyfriends, and babysfathers hurt, raped, or killed. Its too bad you ladies picked failures in life to "support" I get a good laugh when I see you come into my prison with your children. Dont you think the child should see the inside of a school before they see the inside of a prison? How can you live with yourselfes? It makes me sick, now the children have no chance in life and its your fault.

This comment is basicly for the person that commented before me.....dont blame the sins of a father on a child. How does someone being in prison give that child no chance in life? When I was in school (a very expensive private school) we went to visit people behind bars. We did this every Christmas. Was the school wrong in showing us prison life? Not in my opinion. It made me think, it made me see what other wise I may never have known. I have never had legal woes nor have I ever had a loved one sit in prison. My family is all in law enforcement one way or another. My Uncle is Chief of Police in my hometown....my parents both were law enforcement, my brother the same....the list goes on from police to lawyers in my family. I today still carry my computerized Sheriffs Deputy card (although it is only good in the County that I am from). I am in College right now working toward my Crime Justice degree in hopes of becoming a Parole/Probation Officer. These guys are in prison cause they did the crime now they are doing the time, does that make them not entitled to be loved? I could go on and on but I will end with if it wasnt for these crimes and you working within a prison...would you have a job? Doesnt their crimes give you a job? I think you kind of stuck your own foot in your own mouth! You are there to help these guys be better people not degrade them so that when they go back out in society that they remember your bad attitude and show that reflection. Now that would be scary to the community at large! Robin...not a prison wife but an active duty Military service members wife now put that in your pipe and smoke it sir!

after reading your comment, having a college edication, and 10 years on the job i must ask a few questions. You went to an "exclusive" private school yet you and your family are "all" in law enforcement. Do you think with your education you will start as the chief? You may for some security guard company but you will need to pay your dues and do the job. I'm so glad as a child your parents cared so much about you they sent you to jail for Christmas, seems to have brain washed you in the right way thet everyone is innocent. I had a lengthy conversation with the originator of this site. She stated she was only aware of this one time her hubby was arrested. After research with her we discovered a criminal record of over 25 years. Please know what your talking about, back it up with facts, and be able to stand behind your statements.

Sorry Fran for using your journal for this but I have to speak once again to that man....Sir, where did you go to school cause you seem to have a reading problem...you say "exclusive" and I said expensive. That was your 1st mistake. 2nd of all my Uncle is the Chief...he earned that right after years of serving on the force never once in my comment did I say I wanted to be a Chief...I said Parole/Probation Officer...that was mistake number 2 on you. My parents never sent me to jail....the school I attended took my whole class for Christmas to talk with and get a better understanding of a criminals life for an assignment(we also took fruit baskets cause it was the season of giving). Mistake number 3 on your part. If I thought everyone was innocent then why would I be out over $37,000 dollars in tution (after my grants) to become a part of the legal system? just another mistake onyour part and you tell me that I need to know what I am talking about, and to be able to back it up with facts (that would be the pot calling the kettle black)! As far as Jimmy, he admits he is guility, he was found guility, when did I ever say he was innocent? Sir, after getting a peek at your profile I have a few questions for you.....Are you a drug addict? Do you need some of us here to try and get you some help for that problem cause I am sure the legal system would be highly upset to know one of their own was using drugs. Your profile screams out of drug addiction and I would be more than willing to help you get started in your steps of recovery. Drugs only lead to a life of crime and possibly hurting yourself. If your feeling depression let some of us seek out help for you. I would hate for you to possible hurt yourself or worse lose your job due to drug use. We are here for you to help you in any way. Please take care of yourself and remember drugs are not the way. Get high off life....its much safer. Robin
