Well, this year has come to an end in the present. Bye 2017. And as I now prepare myself for a new adventure in 2018. In, following my journey in understanding the criminal system, empowering those that are standing in the need of prayer, and working with those, to advocate for change and awareness in dealing with the criminal justice system. And discovering information to pass along to mothers lovers and caregiver of felons. The possibility of meeting new friends and forming relationships.
Oh, by the way, I got a wonderful link to the newsletter www.thecommunitywis.wix.com /home sent by Prison Action Milwaukee. PAM is an awesome, organization, that I honor and support. You can check out Prison Action Milwaukee out on FACEBOOK. Plan to attend PAM's fundraiser TBA. So getting back to the newsletter, which I felt as a mother's, lover or caregivers, could be a dream come true. Loaded with information that will help to inspire one in seeking knowledge about what is happening to their love. Even insight about certain bills that affect various outcomes in the life of a felon.
And, according to the heading on the newsletter, it stated:"Every issue is put together by currently and formerly incarcerated individuals and their families."
I even found this article: Possible Recreation of Admin Code On Classification, Sentence, and
Release Provisions https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/973/01
As a must-read. I was taught this one by my son. I could never get the full charges out of him or what was he thinking to end up in this mess and how my life would change as I was now reacting and learning how to deal with the matter.
Let me say thanks for your time and attention to my ranting on'sNew Eve and to all.
Love and Peace and a wonderfully created 2018 New Year.

Just for thought!
While searching the internet a few days ago for articles and resources that might make a difference in figuring out what next step in the life-changing mission of having someone entering into the criminal justice system or is a repeat offender.
I would like to present to you a site call Learn Out Loud.
I found this site to have many great resources in the audio and video learning styles. In a sense it help one to see and hear the different point of views.
Great for hearing points of facts. Such as this one on tasering.

In the book The Color Purple written by Alice Walker, the
character wrote letters to God. She felt God was the only one to hear her out,
and that she could tell of the tragedy and hard luck life she was living. She
felt that God would be able to provide her with the means to keep on living and
learning.
In life, we are sometimes quick to express anger,
frustration, and many other emotions, but never write letters to God about it.
How easy it is to lose a loved one to drugs, jail, or mental
illness. Or lose faith when you wished that if only they could have gotten married,
or been single, and get to travel. Just live a great life.
Well I also have not written letters to God about my trials
and tribulations. But I have expressed them to all that cares to read with the
hope that I might be able to get answers, or to question what another person may
not ask. This helps me to struggle through the situation. Plus, I’m hoping
others would share their knowledge and what works for them.
Well, today I took one giant step forward and joined a
support group. If any of you are struggling, or don't want to give up to the
struggle with what is taking place in your life at this time. Joining a support
group, or even forming one will help you to gain perspective on what you
are going through. And, it might help you out as you adjust things in your
life and cope with the matter and the stress that comes along with it.
I would like to give a shout out to Prison Action Milwaukee.
I must say that their vision is A VEHICLE FOR CHANGE IN THE WISCONSIN
PRISON SYSTEM.
I went to their meeting on Saturday, and felt accepted, I
felt that I could learn more and be a partner in their mission to change the
laws criminal justice system. Thanks to the Founder Rose Scott for her tremendous
effort, words of encouragement, and for reaching out to others in need of the
support.
So, with these words I would like to say seek or build the
support that you will need in this journey/challenge.
Take care of yourself, for others now need you to be strong
and healthy, in mind, body, and soul.

Just thinking out loUd!
Tragedy in one's life is a signal for a life change. According to Hafeezah Ahmad, and her
life 's story.
If you look up Tragedy in a financial dictionary there is no meaning for that word. However, we all go through some kind of tragedy in our lives. We as mothers of felons know that all too well.
8And having money at that tragedy moment that your child/children or love are facing jail time and prison can bring about hardships to a family. Like bail money, the visits to the jails or prison, buying food/snacks and gas just to name a few. Oh, How did I forget the time you have to take off from work?
But as synonyms for tragedy is: bummer, misfortune, catastrophe and a whammy just to name a few.
This situation can be turned around, in a success, for happiness, fortune, prosperity, and joy.
It is all based on how you deal with the feeling of tragedy. One way is to find out the insides and out of your child charges or crime. Also what can be the Collateral consequences of-of such charges?
Plus, can you hire and expert witness, if need be?
There an appreciation that at least your child is still alive and there are many possibilities for a good future? But they still have a choice to make and only they can do it. Yet, we still have so much hope that they turn this around. even more, hope than they may feel themselves...

A while ago, I attended a conference on legal matters. I do like to make sure that I am up to date on my facts and what's new in the legal community. And, One of the great things I've learned is, it's great to know the history of life. But, I also gained knowledge, and just wanted to ask did you know the difference between been pardon, expungement, and a commute sentence and how to get one? I didn't. Plus their outcomes. Here are a few links. Plus see if you can go find your own.:)
Did you know that Presidents can pardon a person or persons? View/See for yourself
PARDON: The action of an executive official of the government that mitigates or sets aside the punishment for a crime. http://www.justice.gov/pardon/pardon-information-and-instructions
EXPUNGEMENT:
COMMUTE:
A commuted sentence is a form of clemency that reduces the punishment for a crime. It usually takes the form of a reduced (“commuted”) prison term, but can also reduce court-ordered fines.
A commuted sentence replaces the original, court-ordered sentence. A controversial example is ex-President Bush’s 2007 decision to commute Scooter Libby’s 30-month prison sentence.
When looking at these options: commute, pardon, and expungement one must look up: your state ruling, consider and how it will affect the life of your child, his/ or her case, and whether your child or loved one will qualify for either.
As always take care of yourself first. So that you will be fit and in good condition to help others.
Love, Peace, & Research
