Voices From Inside
Marie, Albion Correctional
“I miss my family so much. I would like to be home with my children, my grandchildren. I’d liked to be considered for a second chance and not be hit at the board [i.e. denied parole] consistently or be looked at like I’m less than a person because I’m not. I have successfully completed my time and I would like the chance to go home and be with my family again.”
Dino Caroselli, Sing Sing Correctional
“These people are just wasting away in dungeons at a cost of millions. They could be out in society mentoring troubled youth. I beg the legislature to pass the Elder Parole bill and Fair and Timely Act to allow more incarcerated New Yorkers fair and meaningful opportunities for release based upon who they are today.”
