This is Betrayal Season 2, Bonus Episode 3.

We're back with a bonus episode.

We were not expecting to produce right now.

Not for another month at least. Ashley texted us with an urgent

update and we wanted to share it with you. My producer Carrie Hartman took the call. So Ash,

tell me what news you just received and how it came to you. I received an email letting me know

that Jason was being released.

You know, one of the big issues in this podcast has been about how much incarceration,

jail time is given to perpetrators.

And it seems to me that this is falling short of the sentence that he was given.

Yes.

So Jason was sentenced to a year, but with time served, so he'd already served 34 days, I think. So they automatically took that off of his year sentence. And then, I don't know for sure, but it seems like he got some type of good behavior reduction in his sentence as well. So it's close to two and a half months sooner than a year.

How is your family dealing with that?

And is he going to be in your community again?

I mean, we all knew he was only spending a year in there.

But I think the actuality of it, and he's going to live less than two miles from me and the children.

That's really what scares me.
