My name is Mr. Troy Simmons and I am currently incarcerated at Marion Correctional Institution in Marion, Ohio. As of March 25th, I am 47 years old. I began my imprisonment in June of 2000′ with a sentence of 15yrs to life. In 2015, I attended a board hearing where I was given 3 more years. I just recently attended my second hearing and am awaiting an out-date. I am a song writer and poet when inspired. Hopefully this blog of yours will allow those with open minds and hearts feel where I, and others, are coming from.
I thank you for your time in this matter.
Sincerely,

Troy Troublee Simmons #A405559
