Family members of those who have perished inside city jails penned a letter Friday to the Governor and fellow lawmakers urging them to not pursue legislation they believe will lead to a bloated prison system and, ultimately, more deaths.
Melania Brown, Akeem Browder, and many more who have been bound together through the pain of losing a loved one behind bars have dedicated their lives to preventing other families from experiencing that same grief. However, these brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, sons and daughters turned activists now believe there will be a lot more grief spread if the Governor continues her present course.
