Hello, my name is Jameel Coles. I am 42-years old and I have been incarcerated for 23 years on a Life Without parole sentence. Since I was a young child I have always had a dog. My first two dogs were named Benji and Solo (Hans Solo of Star Wars). My last two dogs, prior to incarceration, were Tiger and Missy. I joined the dog program to make living amends by expressing my humanity by rescuing and training dogs that will bring comfort and joy to veterans and families in the community.
