- A U.S. Justice Department review has identified at least 175 federal prisoners who must be released or resentenced because they have been locked up improperly. The review, which followed a USA TODAY investigation, found that some of those prisoners shouldn’t have been imprisoned because they hadn’t committed a federal crime. Others received sentences vastly longer than the law allows.

The Gillispe story is BOTH Victorious and sad!!
Sad because he lost so much of his life that he should have been able to Share amongst his family and friends that he can NEVER get back.
Also sad because I know after have spending time in prison for something that I didn’t do….although he may not ALWAYS talk about it…..those prison memory’s and their effects will ALWAY’S be there!!
Victorious because now he IS free to BE with his family and friends!!!
Congratulations Mr.Gillespie!!!!
