Mother's forgiveness gives convict second chance
- By
- Steve Hartman
(CBS News) TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Not many convicts consider themselves blessed, but Eric Smallridge does, and for good reason. He's getting out of prison -- way early.
"It's going to be like being on borrowed time, because I know I should still be in prison, because the justice system said I should still be in prison," Eric says.
Lisa Dickson and Meagan Napier.
/ CBS News/Napier family
In 2003, Eric, of Tallahassee, Fla., was found guilty of two counts of DUI manslaughter. While driving at twice the legal limit for alcohol, he hit a car carrying Lisa Dickson and Meagan Napier, both 20, killing both girls instantly. He got 22 years for the crime, which sounded just about right to Renee Napier, Meagan's mom.
"I felt like our system had served us well and justice had been served. I definitely felt that," Renee says.
But a few years later, a woman came forward and asked the judge to reduce Eric's sentence by half. She claimed Eric was truly sorry for what he'd done and deserved leniency. The judge obliged -- partly because of what she said, but mostly because of who she was.
Renee's 180-degree shift began with the single turn of a single phrase. First at Eric's sentencing and later in a letter, Renee told Eric she'd forgiven him, even though, at the time, she hadn't -- not really. At trial, Eric had actually been pretty defensive and unapologetic.
"I could hate him forever and the world would tell me that I have a right to do that," Renee says. "It's not going to do me any good, and it's not going to do him any good. I would grow old and bitter and angry and hateful. ... In my opinion, forgiveness is the only way to heal."
She says it did heal her -- almost as much as it healed him.
"It was like a burden," he says. "It was a weight off my chest. I no longer had to hide behind this facade."
Renee Napier embraces Eric Smallridge.
/ CBS News/Pensacola News Journal
Following the forgiveness, Eric apologized repeatedly and profusely -- in private and in public -- to the families of both girls. Eventually, Lisa's parents forgave him, too, which only inspired Eric to atone even more.
While still in custody, Eric agreed to speak at high schools with Renee, telling kids, as only they can, the consequences of drinking and driving. They both plan to continue doing this even after Eric's release.
"I'm going to go to wherever we need to go to spread this message, because I don't believe it's about us anymore," he says.
"There's going to be healing, and there's going to be good things from here on out," says Renee.
This week Eric Smallridge was released from custody into the arms of his parents -- his mom so grateful that she actually hugged the guard first.
It's a happy ending that would have never existed without forgiveness. Because of that one powerful word, tonight he is free. And so is she.

What was the worst thing an "elder" ever did to you ?
by Pitchess Co-Gen inthe worst thing an "elder" ever did to me was in 2008. i was in one congregation, but i wanted to return to my home congregation because i've been reproved there twice ( once private and the last one public ).
when i came into this congregation in 2007 i thought i was going to move up the food chain ( this congregation was full of older people, so i thought i would move up faster ).
but i got into some trouble in the congregation.

I remember a very old elder went way overtime in his last service meeting part that night, the PO walked to the stage and he stopped his talk and the PO went to say a prayer immediately and the meeting is over.

Jehovah's phone number
by ShirleyW inwell actually my caller id said jehovahs witnesses, so it belongs to one of his ever so faithful servants who was trying to get in their hours this evening and was doing phone work, i just wonder how you can call a phone company and request a phone number under a name that belongs to a worldwide religion.
of course sis.
[name removed] from the [removed] congregation here in the city, started in with the hurricane sandy doom and gloom sermon, had to tell her ive heard that sermon since i was child in the 60s, asked why dubs do that when the scripture says no man knows the day nor hour basically she/they are still holding out for a holy calamity to do away with us evil folks of the world, she mentioned the earthquakes and pestilence and things are worse now than when you were a child, can they please get another script or something?

Have you noticed them in your area? Don't get me wrong. I am not a racist at all. I have dated very few people out of my race in the past. I just prefer to date someone in my own race. There are VERY few people out of my race that I would not mind dating.
