I understand that they he did the crime and should be responsible for his actions, but he recieved more time then a person who has committed murder. Can you let me know if the new habitual felon amendment law would aide in him the post-supervised release status. He has been in prison since 2000 and has completed a good portion of time. Should I get a lawyer and would this new law affect him in any way?
