If you do write a letter to the parole board; make sure you write it out of honesty, not just because of wanting to help him get out of prison! I've dealt with this same situation at one period in my life and my EX-husband is a repeated offender, he keeps going back on DUI & DWI charges, for 20 years now, and if you feel he has'nt changed by now, chances are he probley won't! Good Luck To You and God Bless!

Write the letter but tell the truth about how you feel - OR dont write the letter Im assuming dwi is Driving While Intoxicated? I could be wrong Im in Australia and we call this DUI - Driving Under the Infuence but that is what Im reading it as - if this is the case whats to stop him getting drunk and killing himself or worse someone else and then you would feel really horrible because you contributed to his release when you dont really feel he has changed.

Absolutely not. You would not be doing society, or him, any favors by doing this. Not to mention what it would do to your own state of mind. You know in your heart that it would be wrong. What if you did write the letter, he continued in his old ways, and killed someone while driving under the influence? Could you live with that? What is he wrecked and killed himself? Could you live with that? If you honestly believe he has not changed, then do the right thing here. Do not write that letter.

if you do, you had better tell the truth. what if he gets out and has a car crash while under the influence? you'd be part of the reason he'd have been out on the street.
let him face the music, it's the only way people learn.
you are probably a good friend though, do keep in him to make better choices. life is a precious gift:)

How do you not know he has or has not changed? He's in jail for DWI.
Whilst in jail, I'm sure he's not drinking, or driving. So, I believe it's a safe bet.

No, don't go against your feelings. If you don't believe he has changed, then don't help him out. You'll feel awful if he gets another dwi and hurts someone.

no , you can tell him you sent a letter to the parloe office , he wont know the difference ,,,,if he is inprison for dwi and you think he will reoffend then dont do a thing ........if his drinking has got him in prison then it clearly is more than one offense or a little mishap people dont go to prison for one little mistake , this was years in the making i am sure .........

Think about this if you lie for him what happens to your pride and your obligation of being a law abiding citizen. That is your reputation and it could be used against you when he goes back to prison. I hope you choose the right decision. Blessings

In your heart, if you don't trust that he drive clean and sober, and you write that letter for him and he kills someone, you will be partially responsible. The judge and the police don't know his character as you do, so be responsible to all the people in the world he might kill.

YES you should write and tell the parole board that you don't think he has changed.
