This blog is dedicated to securing safe the release of WI prisoners who are parole eligible, rehabilitated and ready to be good citizens. These are the "Old Law Prisoners". The existence of these 2800 plus prisoners and the waste of lives and taxpayers' money their continued incarceration causes is a closely held secret.

JOHN TATE FAILED TO MAKE A DECISION IN EXECUTIVE 31 PETITION AND DUCKED HIS DESIGNATED RESPONSIBILITY AND PASSED THE DESIGNATED RESPONSIBILITY TO KAREN HAN WHO IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING AS A PAROLE COMMISSIONER AT THE RISK OF LIFE AND DEATH WITH CORONA VIRUS SPREADING IN THE STATE OF WISCONDIN AND PRISONS IN WISCONSIN
Mr. Jackson filed a EXECUTIVE 31 PETITION July 23, 2019 and sent it to Warden Reed Richarson office for determination whether Jackson was statutorily eligible and once Mr. Richardson determined that Jackson was statutorily eligible, Mr. Richardson secretary forwarded this petition to Mr. John Tate II (Chairperson) in October 2019 as confirmed by the Warden secretary to Mr. Jackson family that she told this to over the phone. From that confirmation the petition had been in Mr.Tate II possession at least seven months.
On April 16, 2020 Mr. Jackson finally received a response to his petition from Karen Han that was dated April 8, 2020 and not the Chairperson. Mr. Tate II is the Chairperson and the only person that has been designated by rule to make decision in Executive 31 petitions.
The petition was stamped received July 30, 2019 which is inconceivable because the petition was not sent by the Warden Secretary to Mr. Tate II until October 2019 (two months after Mr. Jackson sent the petition to the Warden.) Mr. Jacob Walters (parole commissioner)
