LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) â Nebraska inmate Michael Ellington calls prison one of his biggest accomplishments.
The 32-year-old from Clarksdale, Mississippi, is in prison for robberies he committed in June 2007. But now he has two work release jobs and talks about taking positive steps.
Ellington has been at the Community Corrections Center for a year, and he credits it with helping to prepare him for society. He has a parole hearing on New Year’s Eve.
Ellington said prison provided him a foundation to get his life back together.
