Sometime in August/September 2000 Lee ford murdered my ex-husbands sister Leslie Ford and her 4 children. Lee Ford was their step-father. The children were 17,16,14 & 13 at the time of the killings. He was found guilty & is currently serving a prison sentence of 27 years. He is eligible to begin to apply for parole in the next 3 years. We have to live with what he did for the rest of our lives and feel that he should never be released. 
The effect their deaths had on anyone that knew them was catastrophic. From family to all their school friends. 
He has never given a reason as to why he did what he did or when he actually committed the murders, we don’t even have a day that we can commemorate. He also shows no remorse. We feel if he were released he would still be a danger to the public. In the eyes of the law familial crime is not judged the same as stranger killing. In my opinion it’s worse as the person who you loved and trusted the most commits the ultimate betrayal. 
I hope you will all sign this petition to ensure that Lee Ford stays in prison for the rest of his natural life, as someone that planned & executed the murder of 5 people and then covered it up is beyond words. 
Many thanks for taking the time to read this.
