7. "Survivors of Violent Loss Program"
In late 2022 became the
"Violent Loss Solutions"
Violent Loss Solutions program is a life preserver for many co-victims. They deserve the
kind of specialized support required after the loss of someone in an unnatural, violent way.
It is heartbreaking to lose someone dear to you. Life as it was known becomes shattered.
When someone you love has been murdered or died in a violent way, it is truly
devastating. Beginning in 1998, the “Survivors of Violent Loss Program” in San Diego
began along with the support of many in the community. In late 2022 the “Survivors of
Violent Loss Program” became “Violent Loss Solutions” a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit
organization.
The new website www.vloss.org is home for "Violent Loss Solutions". It is our virtual
office for those who live and work with violent death. This National resource provides
information, resources, training, and opportunities for networking with others.
The Mission of this site is to provide a lifeline of hope and healing, addressing
the issues of traumatic grief for those who work to rebuild their life after a
homicide, suicide, drunk driving, or terrorist fatality.

8. STOP THE PAROLE RELEASE OF WILLIAM RAY
HALL CDCR#K46685, HEARING DATE
March 28, 2023
It will be twenty-seven years on March 22, 1996 a ex-boyfriend of my daughter Toni Parcell, laid
in wait at her house and strangled her, put her into the bed of her truck and drove her to the
foothills in Redlands. He then pushed her body over a cliff and drove to his house and got his
gun and drove back up to where her body was and shot her head off so no one could identify
her. We searched for two weeks for her, even rented a helicopter to fly us over the area where
she lived, looking for her truck. In the meantime, the police pulled him over in her truck and he
confessed but because there was no body, they couldn't charge him. A friend of this animal
called police and said he knew where the body was, and WILLIAM RAY HALL was charged with
second degree murder. We were advised by District Attorney prosecuting this case to plea-
bargain, which we have since learned this should have been a First-Degree case. This murderer
has gotten into trouble numerous times since being locked up and even got sent to Pelican Bay.
William Ray Hall has had several parole hearings and has gotten each time 5 additional years
but comes right back in a couple of years asking for an early release as he says it is not humane
to keep him locked up any longer. In August of 2022 the Parole Board approved him to another
hearing. So, on March 28, 2023, we are having another parole hearing to get released early. I
need your help in signing this petition to keep this animal locked up! Thank you and I'm sure
Toni would thank you if she could. We, the undersigned STRONGLY OPPOSE parole for William
Ray Hall. Justice demands he serve the FULL PRISON TERM given to him at the time he was
sentenced for this heinous crime.
Thank you, Lynn Tracy mother of Toni
