RE: Russell Johnston ADC# 152468
Hearing date: 11/21/2019
One day the San Felippo family were on their way to visit relatives when tragedy happened. Witnesses told authorities that Johnston was chasing another vehicle at high speeds and rammed that car. The second car went out of control striking two other vehicles. In one of those vehicles were Frank and Judy, 67 and 66, John, 35, and Jersey, 10 who were all killed instantly. John’s wife, Marilyn, was barely alive and in critical condition.
Three generations of the San Felippo family were lost that day. Today Marilyn morns the loss of her entire family because of this man’s road rage. She has also had to undergo several surgeries and still has daily pain related to her injuries from that day.
We, the undersigned, STRONGLY OPPOSE parole for Russell Johnston. Justice demands that he be kept in prison to complete his sentence.

The weight of this process wears on me but we have to keep going. We are nearing five hundred signatures and hitting that mark is vital if we want anyone in power to actually listen to us.

This was my dear sister, brother in law, nehew and great nephew. All gone too early in an instant due to someone's negligence and emotional immaturity. Please do not release this horrible person that robbed me of my dear family. Thank you.
I was at the trial. This man had no remorse, no apology to the family, he only laid blame on others. He wouldn't even acknowledge what he had done and how many lives he destroyed. Make him complete his entire sentence!
My husband works in a maximum security prison, there are offenders in there doing decades for one homicide. This guy murdered 4 innocent people and destroyed the lives of many. Do not grant him parole, his punishment has not even brushed the surface of the turmoil and punishment he has caused his victims.
He should serve so much more time for four lives. He ended so much more than that. He ended a life of a child and his respected family. I’m all about forgiving and rehabilitation, but the people who have suffered this tragedy, haven’t even come close to having closure yet. Much too soon in my opinion.
My friend at the time of the wreck and currently is Marilyn San Felippo. Her name is about all this man didn’t take from her. If she does not want him paroled, she should have that much control in her life, now. She had no control over what he took from her.
Praying for justice for this family. Justice can only he achieved when the person who causes the loss is denied freedom. When a person takes a life, they end the victims life, as well as rob the victims family of a future with their deceased loved one.
Terrible :-(

I drove by this accident, and it was the most horrific accident that I'd ever seen. Not only did this man kill an innocent family, but he left ones like me that will never get that image out of our heads. This wasn't an accident, but road rage that changed hundreds of lives that day.
