Pardon Guy T. Fisher

I am a person who believes in second chances. I am writing this letter because I feel compelled to bring to your attention the matter concerning Mr. Fisher's case. Mr. Fisher is an inmate in a prison located in Tucson Arizona. He has been in prison for the past 29 years. He was charged with drug racketeering. In 1984 Mr. Fisher was convicted and sentenced to a life term imprisonment. I would not be prompted to make a request in certain cases. However, after researching Mr. Fisher's case and communicating with him recurrently, I am convinced that he is a better man. There are many reasons I believe he should be released. First, Mr. Fisher has served the past 29 years in prison. I believe he has paid his debt to society. Secondly, Mr. Fisher has earned several degrees. He is the first to earn his Doctorate degree, while incarcerated. Also Mr. Fisher; Dr Fisher has great intentions to inspire the youth to learn from their mistakes and positively impact troubled adolescents. Last but not least, Dr. Fisher had an opportunity to reflect on his life; how is decisions affected his family, friends and others in his community. Not only does Dr. Fisher have the experience of being on both sides of the fence but he has the tools and education to help prepare others for life away from negativity.In conclusion, due to the above aforementioned Dr. Fisher has made a major transformation. Personally, I view Dr. Fisher's accomplishments as outstanding and commendable. Dr. Fisher's achievements set to serve a purpose. He is truly an example for others. Dr. Fisher has shown and proved that there is still a chance for one to turn their life around, given any circumstance. He is an inspiration for people of all ages. We all are prone to making unwise decisions that can have a long term affect on our lives. Dr. Fisher has come to this consensus. As a result, he is a changed person. Dr. Fisher deserves a second chance. So in part, I vote in favor of Dr. Fisher to be released. Written by: Erica Pirtle
