Rather surprisingly the state of Utah intervened and stopped a program for troubled teens to be founded (http://http://www.sltrib.com/ci_15325197).
In a final appeal to the parole board last week though, Gardner described himself as a changed man. His daughter, Brandie Gardner, said she believes that to be true.
"Up until 10 years ago, I would have told you he was a bad person," she said. "But something changed in him."
The convicted killer said he wanted to help sponsor a farm for troubled youth, "so that they don't end up like he did," Brandie Gardner explained.
I don't know what to say. Based on the accreditations of the sponsor it had the same potential as many programs. Perhaps it is a sign that the tide is turning even in Utah.
