No Second Chances: Inside Alabama’s Parole System 

Bring back Old Sparky ⚡️

It doesn't meet the cruel and unusual punishment standard if the execution is done correctly. However since medical professionals aren't used due to them taking an oath to do no harm it's likely that botched executions will continue.

​@@adotholland22hush nobody asked you troll

Exactly 💯. I watched several stories of inmates such a Larry Lawtons and I came to the same conclusion.

Wow

Exactly correct. 1 infraction a year is nothing. Especially if these are just bs infractions which apparently they were, or DA would certainly bring up specifics.

The fact that Alabama still has the Confederate flag on their State seal should tell you everything you need to know... (14:48)

Not to mention most infractions likely happened when he first got in there at a young age. That should be something factored in.

Same here 🙋‍♀️ I was born & raised in Huntsville Alabama & this entire state government is corrupt to the core!!!! The state politics here are an absolute joke & the conditions of our prison system are a disgrace to say the least!!! The number of inmates serving 20+ years for crimes committed while they were teenagers is truly alarming!!! We need some accountability with the quickness for those in power here💯

I have a buddy can lives clean as a whistle who says the same thing about the dirty system.

Almost like those positions are voted for and accepted.

@@brysoncherry9884 that's the problem, anyone who wants to change things for the better don't vote. The people who vote are the boomers who have lived in this system their whole lives and it's ingrained in them. They have been brainwashed by society to be cold to anyone who commits any crime, it doesn't matter if it's a victimless crime.

​@@brysoncherry9884almost like people are voting but it doesn't actually translate to anything. Voting is a ritual for show. Winners are predetermined.

He could have not stuck a gun in 3 peoples' faces. How insane is that? Frankly, he's lucky because he will go home eventually. "Robbery gone wrong" is very common. He rolled the die 3 times and got lucky. He could be down for murder with life without the possibility of parole. Everyone commenting on this video has all the sympathy in the world for the guys doing the crime. How about we think about their victims? I do not believe they are rehabilitated. If they were, they wouldn't be feeling sorry for themselves and whining about their inability to speak at the parole. What good what do anyway? E very single one of them will say the same exact thing..."I'ma good boy now, if you send me home, I won't do nothing...."

Cause f*** em that's why.

​@@dereknelson3080I feel you on this if you do some heinous crime you spit 10-15 years in prison and you think you're going to get out on parole for a heinous crime I'm glad that they denied all these hearings.

Alonzo John Goines has committed multiple robberies. Goines was sentenced in 2013 to 20 years in prison for two counts of first-degree robbery in Russell County after he and an accomplice robbed a store at gunpoint. Vice never told any of yall that Goines had already been sentenced to three years in prison in Lee County back in 2008 for another first-degree robbery.

Fact’s

This right here! They are banking. It's so inhumane!

Still the Rascist Slave South..Nonthin has changed

Hey now, you didn’t include the un(der)paid labor of the inmates in your calculation. When you also factor that a lot of labor contracts are with the pentagon for things like personnel uniforms, the government is literally paying them money for housing their captive workforce. It’s kind of genius how evil it is.

Because there is nothing to understand. These people aren't banking notes to keep in your "bank" to earn money. This is why America is one of the only country where jails are private and earn money.

He was 19 and he clearly reformed since then

We're forgetting the fact, that those people do. not. give. a. sh*t. About any of these poor folks

It was argued that way as a negative against the person. They don't care. That's why there was no detail. So the board could make a checkmark by it and deny him.

Its like they failed to acknowledge that 11 infractions over 10 years is one a year on average.

@@beegwan1893 that's bad that's like someone in the free world committing 1 crime a year

@@pelon7109 No it is absolutely not, a infraction is not the same as a crime. Its a small rule break, not equivalent of breaking a law. If he broke 11 laws in prison, he would have been convicted of another 11 crimes during his prison sentence.

@@runinl8agan855 not all crimes have victims homie. I went to lock up for robbing someone that owed me money. Mfer ratted on me.

@@runinl8agan855 lol most people who are incarcerated are locked up for victimless crimes. You’re just intellectually lazy and it’s easier for you to believe that all these people are murderers and rapists vs accepting the truth. America has not benefitted from mass incarceration, only the criminal justice industry has. Prisons are modern day slave factories that turn petty thief’s and drug users into violent criminals and old white people into million/billionaires. We have more prisons/jails than schools in America and 40+% of the population has a criminal record. That’s ridiculous and it’s a side effect of the “lock them up and throw away the key” attitude. We live in a democracy so this is only allowed because of simple minded people such as yourself.

You do the time if you do the crime homie!

Let's not overplay the situation. This man committed those robberies when he wa 15 years old. Of course, the taxpayers funded his rehabilitation. The state is supposed to be penitent in this regard, not lifetime enslavers. A nation is judged by how she treats her weakest and most vulnerable. Additionally, one must ask what created the conditions that would make a 15 year old commit 3 robberies. Perhaps a legacy of... Alabama.

@@mrrilz11 I was from a poor broken home, was abused as a child, and dealt with mental issues for many years. I never violently robbed anyone. There's no excuse.

Then we are truly a cruel and miserable society

@@fdfischer we are a heartless society teetering on collapse. all of these cruelties and injustices you see are symptoms of that. every empire throughout history eventually fell apart and washed away in time. but it's not the end of the world! just the beginning of something else.

society should be judged on how lenient they are towards criminals and let them back out to oppress the peaceful families

“The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons.” -Fyodor Dostoevsky

@@fdfischer speak for yourself

It's a system that takes a toll on the prison, inmates and their mental health, the family's health too, mostly kids growing up without a mother or father, However I believe depending on the circumstance of how it happened by evidence, murderers and kidnappers also definitely rapist should remain behind bars but not 23 hour "lock down" aka "max" aka solitary confinement. They need learning programs in a safe environment for guards, and other inmates. Build better prisons that can house inmates, without them being crowded, and knock down the old ones to reclaim land. Let's not forget the many of people who are incarcerated for non violent crimes. Whether it's drug related or grand theft, Maybe it could be bank fraud or tax evasion. These type of human being offenders can definitely be rehabilitated if multiple programs were available to them, and not crowded, in a peaceful environment instead of jamed packed inmates of all crimes in one big open room, that will always fail as it forces that population to have popularity contests. Who's the strongest, who is the toughest guy, then under him and so forth. To put it simple a "Hierarchy". The ones at the bottom will always suffer the greatest like today's prisons. If we have a large enough prison with fewer cells, so that there're kind-of a small bedroom. With fair size classrooms, the chances of actual rehabilitation, and lower chance of repeat offending, would be 50 % better or higher. That should be the end goal for all prisons and jails. Alot of men and women get released back into society without the necessary skills to be successful at a job, or a career path and a good support system. Instead it's here is a $100! or a tiny bit more if your lucky, and get out! after 10-15-25 years and expect them not to repeat offend, when alot of them are institutionalized, is an extremely dumb thing. These men and women need structure, good support & good level of skills. Guidance in the form of someone who has been to prison and got out, and is successful at a job even if 9-5. Prison reform is needed so bad in this country so you need to vote for it please 🙏🏽. And Bama needs to band together and force the board of parole to resign and get some decent people in that position. We also need justice reform BIGTIME!
