We spoke with Steve’s sister in Michigan who is spearheading the parole effort. She informed us the Florida Parole Board found some sort of decree from long ago that Steve could never be paroled! Her research reveals this is not allowed in his case.
But ‘no parole ever’ makes little sense since we petitioned and met with thew Board 5 years ago..with them suggesting we make another attempt in 5 more years, which is now.
So…Steve’s sister will now attempt to find an attorney to make a formal appeal to the Board.
Please pray for this dear man…his sister…and the Board. That they will see fit to release him very very soon. His sister mentioned that the Board is now seeing cases every 7 years, vs 5 years.
We pray diligently that Steve has not missed his window here…and have to wait another 7 years. Oh Lord. Help please. Thanks to all those pray and gave donations.
