Re: Detra Ferries to Remain in Prison

[rreschran]

Update:  Colorado's parole review board has voted to keep Detra Ferries in prison and not release her to a half-way house. An earlier decision to release her from only serving 7-years of a 20-year sentence was re-voted and overturned after being convicted of the 2011 dragging death Colorado tow operator Allen Rose. During the process of early review, it was determined that the parole board failed to notify Rose's widow of the intent to release early. Farries will remain in prison and continue her incarceration until the next parole hearing is held.

These Parole Boards as well as Judges need to do some serious soul searching as they seek to release these killers after serving less than half their term. To have such disregard for the victims family is unforgivable. Many of these Parole Boards refer to the incarcerates family as the Victim. No, they can visit their family member and that member can speak with them. The true victims can visit there loved one and speak to them without hearing their voice or seeing their face. Let her ROT in prison, she not only struck and killed a Tow Operator, She drug him to his death. I have no forgiveness for her, she went way past my ability to forgiven. I can only hope that this Tow Operators Widow has found her own peace and this injustice has not caused excessive mental stress. Our Thoughts are with her as she goes through these emotions again.
