(change) There has been a huge change in my life: I am 65 years old, African
American. There was a time
I had no book knowledge or understood this life of mine. I read at least 2 books a month, most
about black history.
I have always
believed they are not following the law when it comes to being under the old
law.
This is what I have to say about how they see
some of us: They know anybody
65 years or
older do not have crime on their minds or in their heart. There is no - reason for them to keep older
prisoners past 65 years.
There is another thing I can't hardly believe:
How is it that this little state called
Wisconsin, have more black men incarcerated in prison than any state in the union? If I didn't have any eyes i could see
what they are doing to the African
American men,in the state of Wisconsin,and it's nothing good....
Respectfully,
Woodrow Guiden

Mr Guiden should be released now. He has served more than enough time for the so called crime. He has a family , three sons, two daughters and a fiancee. I truly believe he has a renewed sense of responsibility towards society. He has completed all programs offered while serving his time in prison. At his age 68, i am sure he has no intentions of commiting a crime or endangering any ones life or well being. He is a responsible, hard working, caring man. His family truly needs him in their lives. if at all possible, please please release this man !!
