An Extremely Cruel & Unusual Punishment Perpetrated By Pennsylvania Authorities & Attempted Cover-Up Exposed
Ernest J Franklin
In law, as in virtually every other aspect in life, you have on one hand ‘the ordinary’ and on the other ‘the extraordinary’; through a concise preponderance of evidence this defendant clearly demonstrates that he falls into the latter.
Sixteen years ago, an alleged ‘lifer’ (who’s offense transpired while he was a juvenile) was misled by prison authorities to abandon all of appellant rights due to the fact that his criminal conviction for 1st degree murder was null and void, and he would be paroled on his unrelated robbery sentence in the year of 2005.
Within the State of PA., when a person is convicted of 1st or 2nd degree murder, and subsequently sentenced to a life sentence, this equates to a walking death sentence, ie. the person has to remain imprisoned until the day that he/she dies with absolutely no eligibility for parole.
The alleged lifer was taken through the step-by-step stages of the parole process, beginning in 2005, and repeatedly denied parole until 2008 when it was granted. Subsequently, the alleged lifer’s (prison) financial account was escrowed $73.50 for a bus ticket home, and he was told he had to participate in and complete the mandatory class/program C.O.R. (Community Orientation Re-integration); he awaited his release. However, several months later, at the eleventh hour, he was advised that he would not be released and instead would be issued a new institutional number SERVING A LIFE SENTENCE!!!
To add insult to injury, his family was led to believe he would be paroled; his mother signed/submitted numerous home-plans for approval by the authorities for her son to be paroled to her home, was visited by Parole Agents in Philadelphia and had to attend classes to enable the alleged lifer to be paroled to her. Unfortunately, his family still awaits his release as he lacks the words and courage to inform them that this, apparently, was a sick hoax perpetrated by the PA authorities and a feeble cover-up was attempted to conceal these cruel and unusual acts.
Despite extensive evidence dating back to 1996, the PA Lower Courts are stonewalling and blatantly ignoring these clear-cut facts, alleging un-timeliness? However, the Superior Court of PA currently has this matter before a (3) judge panel for review.
Would the stubborn authorities in PA rather succumb to a major lawsuit (filed by counsel on behalf of the alleged lifer’s family) in this already unstable economy than to render such obvious justice.
To witness the quest of an alleged lifer who was incarcerated as a juvenile with an 8th grade education, and not only taught himself how to read, write and become a chess master, but also learnt how to successfully navigate his way through the complex arena of the judicial system as a pro se litigant, contact him via

Thank you for your time.
