remorse for his actions; and

California Men's Colony, Danny Saul Rosales would "probably pose an unpredictable degree of
threat to the public...;" and

and blaming this attack on that, shows that he will always be a danger to the community"; and
WHEREAS, the date of the next parole hearing for Danny Saul Rosales is scheduled for
May 2004; and
WHEREAS, paroled felons can be relocated to ANY community WITHOUT
notification to the community at large; and
