10-Year-Old dying of cancer; daughter's last wish is to see dad, in jail on meth charges
There's a story that has been aired on CNN recently, and is discussed here at Glenn Sacks' blog. A girl is dying of brain cancer in Nebraska and she wishes to see her father. Dad was jailed in a Federal Prison on a non-violent drug charge. He is due to be released in a year.
Jason and the Yaeger family have appealed many times to the warden for a 30-day supervised release, which could be allowed under "extraordinary circumstances." However, the family says these appeals have been denied, and the prison tells them the circumstances are not "extraordinary."
Glenn provides contact information for the Governor of Nebraska as well as Nebraska's Senators, House Representatives, and the child's state representatives. And I urge people to contact them.
