Latest thing: E-mail......well sorta...He is now able to send e-mails to me for a nickle a letter. They go through a special website that I can sign on to. I write him. Someone reads it for acceptable content and then eventually he receives it. Sometimes, it seems to have a lag time of an hour other times it comes in up to a day later. I have noticed that if I ask him to call me at a certain time when I know I will be home - he gets the e-mail after the time I requested so he isn't able to reach me. This has happened EVERY SINGLE TIME. It really is like trying to communicate with the dead.
In the last email I got from him he had just found out that the person who had introduced him to the crooked attorney that landed him in this place to begin with; the man that was the mastermind behind the scheme had just received his sentence for concocting the mess. Well, if you can call probation a sentence. That's right. Scam people out of hundreds of millions of dollars and get probation. Run 45 minute meeting and give a report that your attorney asks you to give and get 4 years. He is now seething with the injustice of it all.
We tend to think it could never happen to us.........it does.
