Protest Against Parole
Send letters, emails, or faxes protesting the parole of George Douglas Cole

Background
December 6, 1984 George Douglas Cole shot and killed Emily Kay Keever, along with another co-worker Charles Dvoracek. They along with two other co-workers, had stopped at Dvoracek's home for Charles to retreve his boots from his closet. Cole had called Emily into a back bedroom then returned to car and said he had shot them.

No argument had proceeded the shooting and investigators were unable to find any physical evidence to indicate why the victims were shot.

On 23 May 1985 Cole was sentenced to two life sentences to be served consecutively. Cole has shown no remorse for his crime and has never given a reason for the killings. Justice demands that he be made to serve his entire sentence. In addition, to lessen the emotional trauma the parole review process has on the victim's family, please ask for the maximum set-off for any future parole reviews.

Please DO NOT grant parole to George Douglas Cole. As a concerned citizen, I am writing to protest the projected parole.

Please consider the maximum set off before future parole reviews.

Sincerely,
