Identifier: CAC_CC_014_2.2_29_3_0001
The text is a series of letters regarding the case of General Prisoner Roland Clark, who is currently serving a sentence in prison. The legality of his trial and sentence is questioned, as well as the possibility of parole. The letters discuss the review of his case by the Clemency Board and the recommendation for parole. The text also addresses the argument that a man cannot be court-martialed after discharge from the military, and provides an explanation of military jurisdiction in such cases. The letters request further consideration of the case and potential intervention for Clark's release.
