@Tinkrbl44, I replied to the OPs question based on her reference to someone she's never met - a non-family member....someone she didn't know. A family member in prison was not the question. Perhaps I should have been more specific, but I didn't think that was necessary. Corresponding with a stranger in a federal prison would seem to be risky. Just my personal opinion based on her question.

Let's not make this question into more than it should be. A close family member or sibling is not being discussed.

@jannabelle1

I don't think I'm "making this into more than it should be". The OP asked if we've written to ANYONE in prison ... so I took her question at face value. She didn't specify family OR stranger.

Have any of you ever written to anyone in prison?

Apart from the obvious question "why?", you might consider the fallout that could occur if you pursue a correspondence relationship with a celebrity in prison. She could begin asking favors of you, may entangle you with people on the outside, and who knows what else? Is it worth the risk? I highly doubt it.

@furbabylover

She may be well known, or infamous, but I certainly wouldn't call her a "celebrity". JMO

I have not but find it interesting that you would want to write her. It might be interesting.

I want to know what she wants to tell her.

Edited to add: What would you like to tell her, @bigtraps?

Not in the eyes of the prison parole system. Her paroles have continued to be denied because she showed no remorse at each & every hearing. Betty still feels "they" deserved it & she is the victim.

@Mz iMac

Yeah ... they MADE her kill them.

Two things have always come to mind with Betty ...

First, why didn't Dan have a better security and alarm system ... and use it?

Secondly, why wasn't she ever deemed insane by a psychiatrist?

Well, if she can't be in an institution for the criminally insane, I guess repeatedly denying parole is the next best thing.
