More about: Life Without Parole

by Betty Jackson

You may have read the previous article, Life Without Parole, posted almost a year and a half ago. Shyrl Lamar attempted several times over the past few years to obtain a parole. It was denied, until she had new legal representation. The Governor commuted her sentence to 34 years to life. Having served 35 years, she appealed the Parole Board again. The board agreed to her parole, based on her sincere regret for her past behaviors. There were a couple more hurdles, but she was paroled in December of 2020.

Shyrl did her best to honor Christ under difficult circumstances. Because of the Covid virus issues, she did not have to go to a type of "half-way" home for women. She is now living with her son and his wife and children. She is so excited to be there. 

I pray for Shyrl. I believe she will do her best to be faithful to the Lord.
