How's he doing? It's hard for them when they come out, especially after doing a long stretch. It's like time stopped for them at the time they went in. Someone I know was a heroin addict and got caught up in that three strikes law in California. He has been in so long now that he has never used a computer in his life. He gets newspapers that are three weeks old. I could go on but you get the picture. The adjustment is really hard to make when they come out and that's part of why the rate of recidivism is so high.
