Thank you for your reply. You are correct in your statement of moving forward and not allowing hate to ruin or overcome your life. That's easier said than done when the injustice has destroyed a family, but we also know life is 90% what happens to you not in your control and 10% how one reacts to those actions. With that said, I realize my son and I both have work to overcome feelings of hate and hostility toward the corrupt system and people who instigated this injustice.
I will print your comments and mail to Randy so he can read and hopefully it will help him come to grips with being more positive. I maintain this is only temporary and relief will come. I pray every day that God will touch the hearts of those involved and correct this sentence to what it was supposed to be: 8 to 12 years.. Thank you again for taking time to respond to my comment to your letter. Sincerely,
Hi. I just stumbled on your blog and it took me by surprise. I remember your case very well. I had a friend who lived at the Salem Harbour Apartments in Bensalem. Since your crime happened there, I naturally paid close attention to the case. The details were pretty gruesome. My friend didn't know the victim, but he said everyone who lived there knew about the guy's garden, and that supposedly he was a nice guy. I remember you being taken away by police, and spitting at either your girlfriend or her mother. I don't know why I remember all these details, but I do. I was curious , I guess, how someone who seemed so vicious would turn out, which is why I read your blog. You seemed to have done a big turn-around, with a pretty good outlook , considering your situation. I hope you are able to make the best of what you deal with. Good luck, Bill.
Remember that know matter where we are at any given time. We don,t have the freedom we want whether we are incacerated or living in this messed up world outside. If we don,t put god first we will never truly know what freedom is all about.God gives us a future where we did,nt have before. Sin is sin know matter where or how it is committed. We think that some is worse than others but when it comes to going to heaven, no sin will enter into heaven, So those who are in the frame of mind that a little sin don,t matter. I have news for you You ain,t going anywhere but right here with those who have not ask God to forgive them of there past and live for God like it is the last day before he comes. When we have done this then we truly have freedom form all the trials and tribulations of this world. I am incarcerated not behind bars but in this world of trials and tribulations. I also wait for freedom from these things. Here I have a temporary freedom form these things and wait for the permanant freedom that God has promised us. I will pray for us both that God will strenghten us both from the world and the games they play, and that we remain free in our mind with God. God bless you and all who are with you there. Keep up your in of the bargain and God will keep up his end. Love you brother. Truly blessed by God Jerry.
i think the fears you went through are pretty normal in that type of situation...everyone knows that prison healthcare is less than what it should be and in an overcrowded place like that it is also very easy for diseases to spread. Sometimes fears seem unrealistic but then we all seem to know someone whose life has been destroyed or severely affected by a disease. Health is nothing we can take for granted and I wish you that you will always keep yours.
