I have read in the paper that Susan Smith who drowned her two children in a car she is 31 years old serving a life sentence -is seeking people who would like to write her. She was a JW for awhile ??dont know much about that -but I saw her husband on JW -( Larry King Live) he stated there >>he was a JW>>> not one anymore.
So if you would like to be UNjudgemental. ( She says she is very sorry now) & want to have a penpal it is inmate ( lifer)
Mrs Susan Smith #221487 Leath Corr INST 2809 Airport Rd Greenwood.SC 29649 U.S.A
Thought some of you might like to count your time!!!!
Thanks for the address. I would not be surprised if she was somehow messed up with jw teachings but I do not know either. I think that I will write to her. Thanks again. love, dj
It sound like shes had a very difficult life, people do a lot of things they later regret when they're near the breaking point. Things like this are a big step in rehabilitating people.
If anyone does decide to write, get in touch with the prison for guidance on what to include in your letter. Don't include any personal information in your letter, and think about using a mailing address. She's doing a long sentance, but how would you feel if her cell mate got parole after a violent offence and turned up on your doorstep?
Things like this can make a big difference for a prisoner, but write to the jail for guidance first to make sure you don't cause any problems for yourself. The jail will be pleased that you've taken an interest and will help, encourage and support you.
GOOD ADVICE GADGET-I never thought of that. I once wrote to a prisoner in Kingston ( I visited them all with a group) luckily enough one of the guards warned me to NOT give my address as he WOULD visit me on his exit.....I was to dumb to think about that.
DJ....Yes me too. I figure she must feel awful about her disgusting action. Her husband said she probably thought that is one way they would get a resurrection ( dying before Armeggedon) & she wanted the man she was having an affair with- he didnt want any kids.... Just the thought of her actions makes me sick.. But I will write her just to let her know - what WE know...(((hugs))DJ
....... and rightly so.
