It is a horrible thought and reality for many people. Even worse, imagine one of your other children being charged and subsequently convicted of the crime. Possibly worse yet, your 15 year old son is not only prosecuted for the crime, but also tried and convicted as an adult. Such is an all too common event and potentially on the increase with current laws. Though there are numerous such incidents.
At this time I would like to make you aware of one case in particular, that of James Prindle, a young man currently incarcerated. Though an ‘adult’ now, James was 15 years old when arrested. He was subsequently tried as an adult, found guilty by a jury, and sentenced to 22 years in prison, and remanded to the custody of the Tennessee Department of Corrections. Recently James, turned 18 and was transferred to the adult prison world. This is perhaps when things went from bad to worse and give cause to James’ case going from bad to worse!
Whether influences were positive prior to his incarceration are questionable, now that James is in an adult prison, the number of positive influences are just as, or even more questionable. Since entering the adult facility, James is exposed to a new set of ‘peers’ with a whole different set of standards and he is learning. Not to say all people in prison are bad, by any means, despite his ‘peers’ being prisoners, they are often times grown men who have lived in the world and don’t necessarily always see things on the ‘up and up.’ The influences and the affect they are having on James are all ready apparent, and this is after only a matter of months!
James, as well as countless others need our support and help. After months of being involved in James’ case, I am more familiar with it than others in some ways. The introduction of James to the adult system has had an advese effect in some ways as he has found new ‘freedoms’ and methods of seeing and dealing with things. James needs your support ~ spiritually, mentally and financially. James has essentially no means of support from the outside, save a couple of dedicated and loyal individuals, who have their own issues to contend with.
