Between The Bars

It's getting more and more real, isn't it? Imagine the atonement granted to the exiled scapegoat*... and then pull on my grayed goatee when you see me again - free as can be! Knowing what I know; I am blessed
*see Leviticus 16:10

P.S. This is when a show of community support is most important, I suspect. So if I have to point out the obvious, I'd say, Look! a mere semblance of "interest" here on this blog site may just possibly add weight on the scales of justice, when considering my early parole.
Whatever the reason for the apparent lack of interest out there disregarding the wandering scapegoat on this blog site up to this point - its time now for any and all comments to being flowing here between the bars, for the parole board demigods to consider. Let's do this!

(Pen. Code 3041(a)(1); see Pen. Code 3051 (c)) ["An individual subject to this section shall meet with the board pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 3041."]; Plata v. Brown, February 10, 2014 Order Granting in Part and Denying in Part Defendant's Request for Extension of December 31, 2013 Deadline, 4(e) [providing a new parole process shall be implemented such that "inmates who are 60 years of age or older and have served a minimum of twenty-five years of their sentence will be referred to the Board of Parole Hearings to determine suitability for parole"].)
