Thank you so much for your responses, much appreciated. I do tend to go and read their crime but there is a bit on there that says
WriteAPrisoner.com - Prison Pen Pals
when I try and go into the correctional facility to read up the crime it wont let me maybe I'm doing something wrong.
the other day I was so disappointed I saw this one profile that I thought oh well let me see if i can start my writing by corresponding to this guy who was on death row only to note that he had been executed 3 weeks prior - why wasnt that taken off??? Anyway to continue I will write and hopefully get a pp to correspond with.
Thank you again for your responses!!
