Family fears budget cuts will lead to murderer's release

Make room in our prisons by taking every illegal immigrant and sending them back to their country. If our borders were being defended properly, there would be fewer illegal immigrants getting into our country, and fewer overwhelming our local jails and state prisons... draining resources that we cannot afford. The Constitution demands that the government provide for the defense of this Nation- that includes our borders.

It's bad enough that our prison system does not uphold a life sentence, but to let a murderer come up for possible release after only 9 years is a travesty... an enormous injustice. He shouldn't even be allowed a hearing for parole.

We also need to adjust some of the sentencing guidelines for drug related crimes. Especially, for those arrested with small amounts. And, I seriously think it is past time to stop locking up so many folks for marijuana and the absurd "drug paraphernalia" laws.
