What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? To Whom It May Concern,
As a Michigan citizen I ask you to accept this written appeal for parole for Michael Jerry Beebe # 240491, currently serving a long sentence of imprisonment with possibility of parole in June 2009 for his 1999 conviction of prison escape. Michael did not escape from prison another inmate did and the FBI have investigated thoroughly and have found Michael innocent. Michigan Department of Correction is still holding him his release date is 2045; he has already been incarcerated for more than 12 years. Michael is currently being held at Standish Maximum Corrections Facility in Michigan.
Whatever the reasons and mechanics by which our legislature has managed to enact a law holding someone responsible for crimes far greater than those actually committed; the citizens of this state never intended that for a crime which he had no involvement in and a non-violent inmate. Although that premise stands on its own, I invite you to review the details of this case, trial, conviction and sentence and learn why so many people are so outraged by the magnitude of this injustice.
I believe, as do most Michiganders, that crime must be deterred and prosecuted, that convictions must be fair and that punishments must be equitable. Why is he at a Maximum Security Prison level 5; the possibility of parole for a man convicted of a crime he did not commit using a legal fiction is neither fair nor equitable. Michael’s appeals thus far have been denied, presumably because the parole board must follow the law without regard to its grossly unjust unintended consequences. I ask that you please correct this injustice by helping grant Michael Beebe’s Parole. So Michael can come home and work to help support his wife and kids
Respectfully,
