In memory of Dr. Kenny H. Linn, J.D., LL.M., (22 July 1939 - 28 May 2009).


Co-founder of FedCURE. Chairman of FedCURE (2002-2009). America's expert on federal parole; co-author and the leading advocate of legislation to establish a hybrid system of parole and good time allowances for federal offenders. A tireless advocate for federal inmates and their families. Kenny is the model to study to demonstrate that parole works!

Kenny Linn was a former federal prisoner. He was on parole under the supervision of the United States Parole Commission until 11th August 2004, at which time the Commission terminated his parole supervision. Completing undergraduate degrees in political science and economics at Tulane University, he went on to study law at the Schools of Law at New York University and Loyola University (New Orleans). Linn received both a Juris Doctorate and Master of Laws from the University of Honolulu Law School.

He has worked for numerous luminaries in the music and entertainment field and has been the President of International Marketing & Development Corporation, Middle Eastern Ventures S.A., and Ferrier Designs Ltd.

Although he was semi-retired and involved in international real estate development, Linn spent countless hours helping federal inmates. Linn worked tirelessly seeking changes in the current parole system by advocating for presumptive parole. He was FedCURE's expert on federal parole issues and assisted in the writing and introduction of a reinstitution of parole bill currently before the U. S. House of Representatives. Currently, he was working on developing a campaign for restoring a federal felon's voting rights - re-enfranchisement - once a federal sentence is completed.
