Good morning Harlan,

In case you haven't heard, the judge in St. Croix County granted early release for John to come home. Your last blog talked about silver linings and this was one for him. He was eligible for early release back on March 9 and he immediately submitted a well written request plus all the paperwork. The district attorney recommended and the judge granted his early release in record time. His probation officer expedited the release details by two weeks and he arrived home on April 14. The only snag--nobody mentioned he's a Special Notification Bulletin guy compliments of Attorney General Brad Shimel's opinion on sex offenders being forced to wear an ankle bracelet for the rest of their lives. The original law was intended for repeat Level 1 and 2 offenders....but Shimel's opinion changed that to be anyone with more than 1 count being included. Not more than 1 offense...rather 1 count in the same case. This was never mentioned in putting together the plea bargain (which included 3 counts of possession)and it's not in his sentencing. So--he's got a new accessory and I'll be paying for the rest of his life! Something new to research when this COVID 19 pandemic is over. I'm continuing to write to the Department of Corrections, the Governor and anybody else who will listen. Your logic for old law prisoners makes absolute sense and I believe it's being done in other states...I keep asking why Wisconsin isn't stepping up to be a leader. Stay strong, stay safe and I'll keep writing and pushing! Evy

!had to log in first.Karel wrote it to me. His wife M didn't go out for a complete month!At 60 she just is on retirement. But her wage is that low!She might consider to work longer?They can't go to a park. The quarentine was real severe!No people in the streets practically.But we have many deads;our quarentine is not that severe here.They showed on tv in America dead people in BE was the highest in rate.That is because we're counting differently.Residents in a home or care center for elderly people,die easier and they counted them as if they died from Corona;as they hadn't taken enough tests.:(That in a way is not a real good number of course!But in the taking of numbers of deaths in the whole world,there were done many manipulations!Not accurate numbers.Just to prove there were not THAT many!We've counted in a way too many and that's why we were there on top of the list!But is is extremely bad for our future tourism!Our peak of Corona is flattened,and it shows we're going the good way.BUT,we haven't to forget the directed measurements!Taking social distance,washing often our hands with soap,no group forming,nor shaking hands, nor cuddling!
ONLY then,we take care of the going down cases.IF we had not done that after a week,around half of March,our line of the grafic would raise straight upwards towards a high amount of affected people!:o
We can each time follow on tv the current situation.And there seems to be light on the end of the tunnel.:)What do they actually do in your prison,Kelly?Tell me.I am on a blog with Rob(ert)and they could "zoom",and he saw his daughter after a long time!They retaliated to him and he was put in a far away prison,but we follow on his blog all the phases he has to coop with.Well,till now they seem to do all they can to keep the Corona virus out of his prison,so I read.
Kelly,I never saw George this time!I planned to go for a month to America,and I stayed only 4 days! To be continued.
