    I'm a felon because of $177.00 but a teen can kill 4 people while drunk and only get 10 years probation. I am permanently disabled single father with primary custody of my 2 yo. I can't get an apartment because of something that happened when I was a teen.

    I am engaged to an ex-felon and we bringing a family together and after being released for 10 years with mo further issues, my fiancé and I have been denied a place of residence. It's ridiculous to deny this wonderful family loving man his pride in his 40's for something he did in he late teens early twenties. It's also a shame our family as a whole is affected. Through thick and thin I'm by his side as he is one of many I'm sure that are 'reformed'. :)

    Virginia has felony status for DUIs. A young person will be marked for life for events than can be overcome with maturity and counseling. Is this the intent of our felony classification? We need fair consequences set among all states. The handling of felony records should be standardized at the federal level.

    I wok with individuals that have turned their lives around; however, they begin to develop an internal conflict because they want to maintain the positive changes, but they struggle financially which effects food & shelter. The instinct to survive is a basic instinct.

    I was charged as an adult for juvenile charges. I was also adjudicated because of these charges. I am being punished for something I did when I was 15 yrs old over 15 yrs later. This is insane! How do you expect someone to make a decent living when you're unwilling to give them a second chance?

    People are human and make mistakes I do not think it is fair that Virginia does not allow people to better themselves and move on in a positive manner.
