My son was scheduled to be paroled this Monday, November 21st. I had motel reservations in place and a lot of other arrangements made. (He will stay in California and hopefully find a job and a place to live.) Exactly one week before his scheduled release date, he was told that there had been an error, and he would have an additional six weeks before parole. He talked to another inmate who was told 24 hours (!) prior to release that an error had been made, and he had to serve another 18 months! I am hesitant to share this with M.I.S.S. because it's so discouraging, but I wonder if anyone else has had such an experience. Fortunately, my son is in a camp, so we can spend Thanksgiving with him. There is much for which to be thankful, but the system is not kind.
