An unexpected text from one of our recently-released clients this evening..

One of the biggest injustices I know of was corrected this morning when Alejandra walked out of old Folsom Prison after serving 25+ yrs of a life sentence she received after turning herself in for breaking a church window in Los Angeles in 1997.
