Petition to deny parole for Byron Pruitt's murderer.


Petition to deny parole for Byron Pruitt's murderer.
The Issue
May 2022 will mark twenty years since the tragic and senseless death of Byron Pruitt. His assailant, Jasper Pollini had returned with his sister to retrieve a tool box and $5 in change he had left behind when breaking in to Byron's neighbor's home. When Byron learned of the robbery, he headed up the private driveway of his parent's home to check on them as well as the neighbor that had notified him of the break in. Byron was shot by Jasper in his parent's driveway and died on the way to the hospital. Jasper was given a life sentence for complicity to murder,15 years for complicity to 1st degree burglary,10 years for complicity to 2nd degree burglary and 1 year for complicity to receiving stolen property. Pollini is eligible to go before the parole board early next year. This was not his first offense and he has consistently been in trouble in prison. When he killed Byron our 4 year old son was left without a father, I became a widow, his parent's lost another son and countless others lost a generous, fun-loving, guy who was a friend to all he encountered. We ask you to honor Byron's legacy by signing the petition requesting the parole board to deny parole and require him to serve out his term. Thank you so much.
