Jason is serving a life sentence(without the possibility of parole) in federal prison, for a non-violent drug offense. He is a first time offender, and was 20 years old at the time of his arrest. He is now 14 years into his sentence. Although Jason Hernandez is guilty of a drug crime, Life without the possibility of parole is to harsh of a sentence. He has served all of his prison sentence without any infractions and has seen his child grow into a teenager, as well as seeing his parents age before his eyes. There is no justice in such a harsh sentence and is now appealing to the president for a lesser term. As of now Jason will die in prison, unless the president change the laws which unjustly sentence first time non-violent offenders to die of old age in prison.
