Obama shrinks prisons and Trump may reverse

I recently read in NY Times how Obama has now granted clemency/commutation etc to over 1000 prisoners. See story here...http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/22/us/politics/obama-commutations-criminal-justice-trump.html

However, Trump has promised , at least during elections to run a law and order administration and this may increase prison populations.

I , for one, who went through the hell of federal prison could only wish that Obama's initiative continues as we are only human and all can use a second chance.

I pray that Trump gives clemency to Rubashkin, sitting on a 27 year prison sentence, which was way out of proportion. I feel sorry for his wife and children.
