POINTS TO USE IN YOUR LETTER TO THE BOARD OF PRISON TERMS IN SUPPORT OF PAROLE FOR HUGO

Hugo is scheduled to go before the Parole Board some time in November 2006. Please write letters, now, to the Board of Prison Terms to encourage them to grant Hugo parole. You may mail your letters to Gordon Kaupp, Attorney at Law, who will be representing Hugo at the parole hearing. Gordon works in the Law Offices of Dennis Cunningham. See below for details.

Please tell as many people as you can to write letters to the Parole Board. All letters should include specific offers of help and/or support for Hugo to re-enter society. The Parole Board commissioners are interested in the following offers:

  • job training
  • offers of employment including temporary work
  • assistance in writing a resume
  • help networking and job searching
  • a temporary or a permanent place to live, preferably in San Francisco or the Bay Area
In addition, describe other ways you can support Hugo's transition back into society after spending over 42 years in prison, 34 in solitary confinement. Please mention your relationship to Hugo, what impact he has made on your life, how long you have known him or about him, and any other positive comments you might have. For those of you with job offers, please be aware that Hugo is fluent in English and Spanish, which should be a feather in his cap in regard to employment. Also, Hugo is very personable, intelligent and athletic and is in tip top physical condition. Highly disciplined, Hugo is a vegetarian and continues to work out regularly. He would be an excellent mentor for at-risk youth.

Please include the date and the subject of your letter, which should be Hugo L.A. Pinell (A88401) and use his prison number, e.g.:

Date
