while some days inside pendleton juvenile can be endless drama for inmates and staff, today brings tension of a different kind. for 18-year-old andrew huff and abel, review hearings to determine if they will be released from prison. i got an arson, breaking and entering, and resisting arrest, and i got probation violation for threatening to kill three girls. i m nervous because this determines whether i go home or not. then again, i m confident i m going to go home because i haven t been in trouble in a long time. i got future plans to go to college and play football. i got my ged, so hopefully i ll make it. the review committee is an opportunity for the offender to come before a panel, like a parole board, and convince us as a board that he s changed and
