8-15-2010 Continued Letter Entry from 8-07-2010
“It’s been a few days since I last wrote in this letter and a few days since I called you (was that the 12th?) I am still in ___ Country jail and unsure how much longer I will be here. More likely I will stay till Friday’s hearing. This worries me, as I said, because I really need to go over my statement with my attorney and I assumed that, at some point, it needed to get to the judge. But I don’t have it, so as soon as I finish writing here, I will attempt to re-write it (I’ve already written it 3 times, perhaps this one will be the best?
I am going to send out this letter in the morning, but, since I don’t know where I will be, there really is no sense sending anything here. I am guessing they will leave me in ___County after the hearing; so better send there. If they bring me back here, it will go into my property. Either way, I suppose I will never see it. Blah! This is so frustrating! I like it here, but feel so cut off.
Hey dad, I just finished reading James Michener’s “Hawaii”. I remember as a kid how you and my older brother loved the “Covenant” and I’ve longed to read something by him now that I am all grown up. Oh man! What an author! If the “Covenant” is anything like Hawaii, I can fully understand why you loved it. I am now reading his novel “Space” and if time permits, I will read “Alaska”.
Chances are—as I said—I will not come back here after the hearing Friday, but also I will be unable to setup visitation in ___ for Sunday—as those forms must be turned in tomorrow. So, I guess I will not get to see you, or Tuesday, or anyone outside the courtroom.
Please inform my attorney of anything that I need to know. I love you.”
