Today we are talking with Bobby Bostic, a 41-year-old man that was convicted at the age of 16 who is serving a sentence of 241 years in Missouri. He was given a sentence of 241 years by Judge Evelyn Baker, making him eligible for parole when he is 112. Bobby is serving the longest sentence in Missouri given to a juvenile for non-homicide offenses.
Bostic's case attracted considerable media attention in later years, due to changing laws regarding life-sentences for children, and the severity of his sentence. Judge Baker later stated she regretted giving Bobby the sentence, and actively supported his appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States, along with Ken Starr, Sally Yates, Donald B. Verrilli Jr. and over 100 current and former judges, prosecutors and law enforcement officers. In April 2018, the Supreme Court denied Bostic's appeal. He is incarcerated at Jefferson City Correctional Center.
During his first year in the Department of Corrections, Bobby obtained his G.E.D, since then he has obtained a Paralegal Diploma and has taken Victim Advocate Coursed through Adama State College. He has also completed a course in nonprofit management and grantsmanship. He has established several blueprints for nonprofit organizations for troubled teens and charities. Bobby has also written fifteen books, nine of them are books of poetry and completed over twenty-five rehabilitation classes.
