South Carolina family demands justice and action after convicted murderer's early release.

The family of Carl Smalls Jr., who was murdered in 2003, is demanding justice after his killer, Jeroid Price, was released from prison 16 years early. Price was serving a 35-year sentence but was released under an order written by a retired judge. The family is pointing to a state law that requires convicted killers to serve at least 30 years in jail without the possibility of early release. South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson is pushing for the court to unseal the secret directive that led to Price's release. The family said Price's release has re-victimized them 20 years after the tragedy and has had a detrimental impact on their healing journey as they now seek justice, again, for their son and brother.
