Looking for parents with Sons Incarcerated in Tuare County, CA

[Swoopa's Mom]

Hi Moms and Dads:
My son just turned 19 yr old yesterday and was just sentenced in April in Tulare County, CA where they seem to have their own set of laws. As you know having your child placed in jail whether it is just or unjust is a painful heart wrenching experience. I just started to sleep more than two hours a day last week. I make a 3 hour drive to see my son every Saturday and I write a letter, note or card everyday. Remember that sending notes daily is helpful to your loved one. Still my heart is breaking and some days I just want to lay down and die because of the pain so deep inside. My hope is that I can communicate with a parent that has a child in Tulare County Main Jail or Bob Wiley Detention Facility. However I do welcome all communication because I know our pain is the same.
I am also available to answer questions because I have learned so much about our justice system over the last year while helping my son fight this case and for his life.
I am amazed at how our justice system works and what they get away with.
My prayers goes out to all of you that have lost your beautiful child to the state in which you live, all in the name of justice.
Look forward to hearing from you.
