The answer isn't fixing prisons and projects , the answer is educating ppl to stop the pattern of harm that makes another criminal. The fix is social help where communities are disadvantaged and have poor social services. Churches and schools need to be available to the ppl to create an atmosphere of support to prevent. PREVENTION IS THE ANSWER........yet greed won't allow it.

thank you for your beautiful talk, your courage to transform your pain into healing for yourself and others.

Yes, her story needs to be told. I can only hope that the kids are getting a path to walk to the healing as it would be difficult as a child to live on after their hero is taken so suddenly.

My brother was murdered by a convict who was convicted for a murder once and did his time. Got out and got caught with a gun and was put on probation. And then an altercation with my brother and shot him cause he felt for his life when my brother didn't have a weapon. And was sentenced for 4 years. Not even the gun charge. That's chicago for you.

That was amazing and opened my eyes to what is possible, thankyou.

My only child, my 18 year old son was murdered. Do I believe I need to forgive his murderer? As a Christian, yes, I believe I should forgive him. But that in no way changes the fact that he should die for what he did to my son. God is the one that said if you shed someone’s blood, then your blood should be shed. People think they are smarter than God but they are not. My son’s blood cries out for justice. He will one day be given justice by God, but sadly man has chosen not to give justice on this side of eternity. 💔💔💔

If he never did and instead committed suicide do u think those that drove him to it should die too???

How can I contact Dionne? I have a dear friend in prison at Jamestown where she has spoke before and would like her to come back

I just do not understand her point. I almost understand maybe what she is saying but its not easy to even follow what she's trying to get at. Forgive the person who kills your husband? No. Dont look for justice? no. Public safety is better because murderers get a program? Ya... no clue.

U gotta connect to the abuse some of us suffer.

just one opinion. Other offenders might just go along with it in the hope for early release.

Even the Best of us all during our lives are not 100% perfect in life,, Remember the best of your memory's of the past, Help or use Good to help balance the bad, help others, it's a eye opening experience, sorry for your loss, but go forward, with good in your heart,, don;t waste the good of the past, use it to go forward well...

You're so amazing

What a coward, I bet her husband is rolling in his grave
