For regular blog readers who correspond with my friend who is incarcerated in the Federal System, I had a call last night. He is in transit, he was in Chickasha, Ok. (I figure in route to Tulsa for intake and assignment). So if you are fixing to post a letter, don't.

Just yesterday I got a letter with letters inside to send to the Federal attorney in Lubbock and to the Sentence assessment team Kilo in Grand Prairie.

Apparently no one can or will figure his release date. The issue is credit for time served as my friend was sentenced and in Federal Custody prior to being in State remand. He was in Fed custody for five months prior to state sentencing and the Feds want to say he was borrowed from the state. To me it appears the other way. Until he was sentenced by the state he was borrowed BY the state.

Also at issue is that the evil wicked judge Sam (a cousin of the Bush's and a Bush appointee) said he would not let the Federal sentence run concurrently with a state parole violation (from an infraction a long time ago as a minor). So until my friend was sentenced by the state he should have received Federal time credit and since July 2010 he should have been getting credit for his Fed sentence as well since the parole violation expired, and he should receive time from September 2, 2011 until now.

So five months, plus thirteen months, plus five months is twenty three months credit he should be receiving on his Fed sentence which he is not. On a sentence of 51 months, that is a substantial amount of time hanging in the balance.

When he lands somewhere, I will let you corresponders know.

For blog readers, I am working on a blog in my brain.

More later!
