In early February of this year the Mississippi Division of
Southern States PBA learned of a parole hearing to be held
on March 28, 2006, for the parole consideration of Israel
Bradley. Bradley was convicted and currently serving his
sentence for the 1973 murder of Sergeant David H. Anthony
with the Hattiesburg Police Department. The murder of
Sergeant Anthony occurred when he responded to an armed
robbery alarm at a local bank.
On February 17, 2006, a Cap-Wiz Alert was sent to
Mississippi PBA Division members who have subscribed to the
PBA Cap-Wiz system. The alert asked members to oppose the
parole of inmate Israel Bradley, by emailing the included
letter of opposition to the State Parole Board.
The parole board has subsequently denied Bradley’s parole He
will not be considered again until January of 2011. Many of
you responded to our alert by sending messages of opposition
to his parole to the parole board. Without question, this
had to have a profound effect on the board in it's
consideration of this matter.
This is just another of the many ways PBA has been able to
utilize the Cap-Wiz alert system to benefit the law
enforcement profession and our membership. If you wish to
subscribe to Cap-Wiz and received such alerts as these
simply click on the
Southern States Police Benevolent Association -- Legislative
Action Center fill out the requested subscriber
information and you’re on board.
