Hi. My name is Hollie but my friends all call me Angelle. I'm from Alberta Canada. And I'm new to the issue of Capital Punishment. I guess I never really thought about it since we don't do it in Canada. But recently I watch a movie called "fear of 13" about a death row convict who was proven to be innocent. There was part of the documentary where he was talking about the lonely he experienced. It broke my heart. So long story short, I looked up a death row pen pal program. Because mistakes or not... they're human too. I have been writing to him for a month or two now and now this issue has been brought to light for me... I guess thats why I'm here. I know so little about whats going on with him. I don't really want to ask a bunch of questions because I'm worried it'll upset him. Im hoping to gain some knowledge and understanding of his situation. And a little support... my family doesnt understand why im doing it. Theyre worried I'll become friends with him and get hurt.
