Alabama Governor Kay Ivey wrote a letter to the Alabama Board of Pardons and Paroles on Tuesday imploring them to deny parole for a woman convicted of kidnapping and murdering a Rome teenager in 1982.

“Please do not grant parole to Judith Ann Neelley,” Ivey wrote Tuesday. “Five years ago, I made that same request of this board and your predecessors unanimously denied parole after less than one minute of deliberation… Quite simply, Ms. Neelley should not be allowed to set foot outside of an Alabama prison.”

Neelley and her husband, Alvin Neelley, abducted 13-year-old Lisa Ann Millican from Rome’s Riverbend Mall, which was located at the current site of the Riverbend Shopping Center, on Sept. 25, 1982.

Chattooga County Sheriff Mark Schrader has also written a letter to the Alabama Board of Pardons and Paroles saying he would be at the prison to pick up Neelley should she be released to serve a life sentence on a conviction for murder handed down in Chattooga County Superior Court.
