Thank you, Scott. I thought that those who read the poem would appreciate the update, good or bad. We'll have good news another day.

Thanks for the update on Bobby. Seems there's a whole lot in this life that isn't fair. Too many go free when they should serve a sentence, and too many, like Bobby, serve too long for the crime committed.

Nancy, You are quite correct. There's a lack of balance within "the system" and, with media being as savvy as they are today, it's becoming more and more evident. Thank you.

Sad news is difficult to digest. Sometimes it seems that we have a Mickey Mouse judicial system in this country. So many innocent people are behind bars serving time for crimes that they did not commit. Do you have any statistics on how many? The number would probably be mind-boggling.
Thanks for the update on Bobby. Thank-you, too, for the well-composed "In The Spotlight" piece. You write so well! Looking forward to reading your novel some day. Maybe you'll end up being another famous mystery writer like Grisham!
Sincerely,
Sandi in FL.

Sandi, Many thanks for your complimentary comments. Given my current "starving author" status, one can only pray to be swept up in the Grisham gust.
