If it is not Constitutional, that is a matter for the appeals courts in North Carolina, or perhaps a Federal appeals court

One more thing...which just occured to me.

I've had experience with appeals courts. An appeal is enormously expensive. Those courts will listen only to big bucks or their equivalent in publicity and legal importance. Do you really think this channel is open to some illiterate low-life?

Illiterate low-lifes get appeals all the time. Public interest lawyers and the ACLU are eager to take egregious cases of injustice to appeal. For some reason, they have declined to do so in this case.

In absense of a successful appeal, would you advocate that the Parole Board just close their eyes to the information before them and release this person even though he has not shown himself to be rehabilitated? Are they to not do their jobs?
