Mother of A Prisoner: A Memoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578202426)

What happens to the mother (who coincidentally was for many years a prison ministry volunteer) when her OWN son becomes a ward of the criminal justice system and ends up in the last place she expected-a Prison. Blind-sided she was indeed G Murrell-Godfrey shows that even a 'praying' Christian woman who faithfully served as a religious volunteer for years, is not exempt from the tentacles of the criminal justice system when her oldest son took a minor detour. Murrell-Godfrey is very transparent in her feelings from the first alarming phone call from Illinois, all the way to her jailhouse visit, sentencing day, yearly visits, release day and parole days in Texas. She wants the world to know that even law abiding parents can have a child who could land on the wrong side of the law. Prisoners have families and despite what people think-Prisoners are citizens too. She acknowledges that we are a nation of laws, yet some inequities within our law need serious reviewing. See how her strong faith carried her through this life-changing experience. How does a mother balance one son newly practicing law and the other son who just broke the law-same DNA. Inside this riveting and compelling memoir she uncovers: Where Are My Friends? Examining My Feelings Being Denied Entry ( to See Him) Second Chance-and so much more..........
