When an Individual is Excessively Sentenced it takes a toll Mentally and Physically not only on them but their family. 
After over 12 years of Incarceration in a Max facility Butch has experienced many acts of violence, a lot of noise, inmates with serious Mental Illness , shots fired in the yard, inmates dieing from drugs falling in the yard, lockdowns, Covid, tear gas shot into the yard, fights, blood , the box, many transfers, cells destroyed by guards. The Trauma has had to have been horrible, unimaginable to us . 
Not once has in Mentioned a counseling session, group therapy, it took years to get a cavity filled . No physical , No eye exam. It’s been over 12 years. His Mental Health has never been addressed ever. 
I pray for his mind every day. Please send prayers , he needs them now more than ever. 
After Max for over 10 years where you have your own cell , your property is safe when you leave your cell . You ultimately have more privacy in the over all picture, he was sent to a Minimum which is supposed to be a step up , I guess. But he is in a dorm setting, much more noise, people in your stuff, no privacy . For a person who never could handle a lot of people at one time this is so hard for him, with no support or counseling , just thrown to the wolves( sorta speak) it has to be worse than anything else.

Please send prayers and courage for he needs it more than ever right now. 

Share and sign this petition so we can get him home and out of this hell hole that is killing him mentally and physically.

Thank you so much for your love.

Butch sends his appreciation and we both send our Love.

Christine
