Unfortunately, the only way for a state inmate to gain a reduction in their current sentence is to provide significant assistance in the prosecution of another crime. Also known as snitching. But there are risks to go along with the rewards (sentence reduction). We are not advocating this but it is an avenue. If you think that there were some legal mistakes or injustices, appeals and writs rarely win. And, there are very few post-conviction attorneys that are worth the money anyway. There
