I also know personally how evil her mother can be not only to Melissa but her entire family down to the grandkids. Creating havoc and putting family members in crucial life situations because she didn't receive a financial gain. Melissa is stuck between people who are afraid of facing her because of all they have done to her and people who really want her to be free. The support is there, the proof is there, no need to bash someone already serving their sentence. Time has passed she's done her time. Release her.
All of these comments are fictitious, Melissa Colbert is a loving woman. She has a kind heart and good head on her shoulders. Although she was wrongfully convicted justice will be served in her defense. I know her personally and spent many years getting to know her. She didn't have a bright history seeing has her mother had abandoned her and her brothers for many years. Her mother was very selfless which made Melissa fend for herself and go to many extremes to survive. Nonetheless what she is being accused of or convicted of is false. Evidence doesn't support the claim and soon enough she will be in the free world and be able to enjoy what is left of her life.
Let me explain about bulletin boards like Between the Bars. Many, many people read every post. I have been reading here for a long time, perhaps even ten years. Just because people do not reply does not mean they do not read. People often don't know what to say. Sometimes people are at a loss of how to relate to someone whose life reality is so much different than their own. Other people seek to relate for reasons that are their own, not for the benefit of the incarcerated. I am different because I fit in neither of those categories. I have many correspondence inside, so I am well aware of the lifestyle and I seek nothing from anyone. I do actively seek criminal justice reform. What I do is a ministry of listening, I listen. So, when I read your poem, I heard you. Your message deserves to be heard, William. Do not stop trying to communicate. Believe me, other people 'heard' you, even if their response was not verbal. Posts are an echo through time that lives on, even after this physical reality is gone. This letter seeks to encourage you to continue writing. All the best, John
Hello. I don't know if you remember me, but I remember you from when you work at baywoods apartments in Antioch. U worked with my "dad" Billy. I'm so sorry to hear about everything. I hope you're doing well for the most part. I remembered you after all these years and I'm glad I finally found you. I know you may never get this, but it was worth a chance to talk to you again. Take care

You have made me interested in your bat story. I will have to find it, at some point.
