Although you may not remember me, I will never forget you. My son
Alex Milun, a student at the University of South Dakota, was arrested
on a pot charge and stood before you and your court on April 3, 2013.
Alex was a young man who had never been in trouble with the law
before; he had no priors, a clean
slate. You had received many
letters attesting to his life-long
character-letters from professors and teachers, employers in
Vermillion, and family.
I would like to tell you, and
the good citizens of South
Dakota, something about how
your sentencing of Alex on
April 3, 2013, impacted his life.
On the day of his sentencing,
I was seated behind Alex, along
with several members of Alex’s
large and loving family. We were
there to support Alex. We fully
realized that Alex had deserved
some form of punishment. We also understood that your role was to
protect the citizens of your district.
As a judge, you wield power and authority. As a judge, you had the
option to punish Alex in a number of ways but you decided “to send a
message to Minnesota” and you sentenced this first time offender, this
21 year old college student, to a MAXIMUM security prison in Sioux Falls
for one month and then had him transferred to a state prison for two
months.
You then released him under the condition that if he were caught
drinking alcohol in excess or smoking pot during the following five years,
or if he was merely with anyone who was in possession, he would be
immediately sent back to prison for seventeen years-no questions asked.
Seventeen years. You wanted to send a clear message to the people of
Minnesota. Congratulations on that sir. Mission accomplished.
Alex was not even allowed to move back home to Minnesota until
May of 2015. Alex was exposed to unspeakable things in your prison.
He never recovered mentally, and the cruelty, drugs, and injustices he
saw and experienced there changed him forever. This 21 year old young
man- a bright, fresh-faced young man, was under so much stress that
he developed shingles.
He came out and immediately started working several jobs to pay off
the legal fees he had accumulated from his case. We were afraid that
his depression and sunken eyes were evidence of something that had
happened to him in prison. We assumed it was PTSD.
As ordered, Alex underwent (and passed) his drug tests on a regular
basis. We never knew that he
had started using opioids. He
went into South Dakota’s prison
system for a marijuana offense;
when he came out he was
decidedly different. Alex died
of an overdose of heroin and
fentanyl on October 24, 2015.
We had him home for five
months.
We never knew. And we have
so many questions. Would Alex
have come to us and gotten
medical help if he did not have
the threat of that seventeenyear sentence hanging over his
head? What happened to him in
the maximum-security prison?
He made a stupid choice as
a very young man, a punishable choice. But your choice sir,
showed lack of critical thinking and quite frankly, vindictiveness.
There is another South Dakota judge retiring this year along with you
Judge Eng, the Honorable Tim Bjorkman. Judge Bjorkman recently gave
a talk at the VFW in Sioux Falls regarding the profound consequences of
using our state prison systems for the mass incarceration of nonviolent
drug offenders.
There are judges around the country who are working to make sure
that our young men and women who serve time for minor, nonviolent
drug offenses are not abandoned into a predatory environment of
violent criminals. How could you have gotten this so wrong?
It is our hope that when you close your eyes at night, you see this
face before you as we do. I know Alex would forgive your indifferent
ignorance, but as a mother who speaks now on behalf of our dead
children, I say… if there is judgement in the afterlife, hopefully the Judge
will be kinder than you were to those who stood before your bench
- otherwise the flames of retribution could burn hot indeed.
Go forward and do good Mr. Eng. You have souls in your hands as we all
do. It’s the ripple effect isn’t it.

Obituary
Milun, Alex Whose radiant smile lifted the hearts of so many,
passed away on Saturday, October 24, 2015. In the 24 years he
was with us, we were blessed
by Alex's sparkle, his positive attitude towards life, his
quick intelligence and helpfulness. All who knew Alex
knew he was the bright-eyed
student of the world's issues. A passionate reader,
ever eager to discuss with
you his discoveries about
what goes into creating a just
society; his most frequent
childhood phrase, "I wonda
why," became, as a young
man, "what should be done?"
Always exploring how things
fit together, Alex could build
you a political argument, a backyard club house, or a cabin picnic
table. He was a hard and cheerful worker, repotting grandma's
flowers or raking leaves for grandpa. He talked about having a farm
outside of town someday with Hillary, growing food on the land and
living connected to family. Alex loved his family and was deeply
loved in return. Our son, our brother, our grandson, our nephew, our
cousin, our beloved companion and friend, Alex, we carry you in our
hearts where your smile shimmers and glows. Talk to us still Alex.
We love and miss you.
