With crime rates no higher than other states, our incarceration rate is up to three times higher. Our new Christian governor, Bobby Jindal is proposing crime-fighting measures that will help police keep more people locked up even longer.

My prayer is that your son will be able to reconstruct his life and become a beneficial member of society. I see alot of recidivism at our facility. Most is caused by getting back into the same problems and friends that they were involved with when they fell. Since they have already been to prison, the authorities are more that happy to send them back on a parole violation. No trial? No problem! Guard him with care!

You might want to include some chocolate chip cookies on your menu--preferably hot out of the oven.

All of us have issues we must deal with. God bless your willingness to share this Andree.
