Recently, we got some big news from our colleague inside San Quentin, Rasaan, New York, Thomas.

Yes, we did.

And since then, we've been waiting for him to call us and tell us what's happening.

Okay, so New York, tell us about the news.

Or in January 13th, the Governor Call and they commuted my sentence.

I'm a chance to go home now.

Okay, Erlan. Although this was joyous news, we have to admit it wasn't exactly a surprise for us.

Nope, because a number of years ago during Governor Brown's administration, New York filed an application for a Commutation of Sentence, which sets a whole-long process in motion.

I know you have explained this to me, I don't know, a dozen times. It is so confusing. Please, just one more time.

All right, all right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. Here you go.

After the Governor accepts the application, then New York had to be interviewed by the commissioners that come in and in.

Then once they write, they report and file an in bank here in the ass of the bank.

The in bank goes to the Governor's office and the Governor forwards it.

And the old signs all for it.

Back to the Governor's office.

Formal Commutation. So once all that happened, New York was waiting on the phone call.

New years came and went, I kind of stopped looking for the call. I thought maybe he changed his mind.
