RE: SAMUEL CRAIG SOLOMON, TDJC ID # 00590873
       STATE ID:  02031377

Dear Board of Paroles and Pardons:

As friends of the Brandenberger family, I am writing to insist that you deny the parole of SAMUEL SOLOMON, who murdered his soon to be ex-wife, LISA BRANDENBERGER SOLOMON, in 1990.

This horrendous crime was witnessed by their biological 3-year-old son, Craig.  After Mr. Solomon was finally arrested, the Houston Police made a videotape of Craig graphically detailing the death of his mother.  A plea bargain was arranged so Craig wouldn’t have to testify as the state’s star witness.   Mr. Solomon received a 40-year sentence and gave up all parental rights to Craig.

Since 2000, the Brandenberger family has fought the parole of Mr. Solomon.  He has threatened the family in the past and would also pose a great risk to Craig, now 29 years old and his family.

I do hope you will not only deny Mr. Solomon an early release in 2016, but also NOT REVIEW his case for parole for at least 5 MORE YEARS.  Thank you for your thoughtful consideration of my request.

Sincerely,
