1) Employment? HA! by coneyb on November 11, 2008I have a friend that stole go-karts when he was 17. It was a felony. He is now 33. He used to work as a landscaper, but due to injury, he can't go back into that line of business. Now, he CANNOT FIND A JOB in this crappy economy. Any job that he qualifies for, has felony restrictions. Employment plan? Good luck!

In response to Senate Bill 1565. I have seen first hand what little becomes from the intentions of the correction dept concerning paroled felons that are incarcerated for alchol offences. What a joke, requiring paroles to go to mandatory classes for 3 years. It is just a money game! And have you considered just who takes these people to these classes? The average "kind" person, that takes time out of their day to waste their time and money in support of these non-rehabilitated con artists. If you want real results... put an alchol tether on them upon release and as a way to have them pay for it?, while they are in jail, sent aside monies that they have earned to pay for said teathes, classes, etc.
