Mr. Darius Gaines was convicted of a crime at the age of 16 years old. He has now been in prison for 14 years. Others have commited this same crime and sentenced 5-10 years. He has admitted to the crime he has commited, shown remorse for the hurt he has caused, as well as learned from his mistakes. The issue that stands at this time, Is Mr. Gaines fully rehabilitated? The answer is Yes! Mr. Darius Gaines should be released. What happened to second chances? He has shown he is no longer a threat to society, he has maintained good behavior. Mr. Darius Gaines daughter was born after he was sentenced and he's never been able to attend a school function, watch her receive an award, play catch or watch a sports event with her. Mr. Darius Gaines deserves a second chance to live a great life.
