Dear [e],

	The circumstance in which I find myself writing to you is so strange as to almost beggar belief. I would like to let you know that all of us on irc, despite our differences, miss you and hope that these baseless and unfounded charges will soon be dropped. The #christiandebate community is particularly affected by your absence.

	There comes a time in each person’s life when they need to take a break, take a step back, and reflect on the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. He dies for our sins, and no sin is so great as to be unpardonable. I have little doubt that you will now look back on the poor choices you made and are eager to make lasting and meaningful changes.

	Your years behind bars need not be wasted ones. While the State has taken your liberty, it cannot wholly silence you. It is time to put pen to paper and tell your side of the story. Whether you find a publisher, or self-publish, the royalties from your book sales can go to Christian Children’s Charities. What better way to give back to the most vulnerable?

	Your friends on irc are keeping you in their thoughts and prayers while you endure these turbulent times. Many of us believe that this was a mistake and that your arrest and charges are a miscarriage of justice. There is talk of setting up a GoFundMe account to get you the legal representation necessary for your release and ultimate discharge.

	I will leave you with some quotes from your friends on irc who are keeping you in their thoughts:
<IL_Shaman> your are banned
[12:28] <IL_Shaman> fuck off
[12:28] <IL_Shaman> anyone that looks like you is banned
[12:29] <IL_Shaman> FELBER

[12:27] <+[e]-im_innocent> but now with this charge I suspect my babysitting business is likely to suffer
[12:28] <+brad70> that aint funny

[13:09] <+tzip> well ok, but let's not rub his face in it.
[13:09] <+tzip> oh, where did you find that, Fen?
[13:09] <+cigarette> I won't mention his crimes against children in my letter
[13:09] <+Fen> tzip, the county jail website.
[13:09] <+tzip> hmm... so not sentenced yet, so not in the state prison?
[13:10] <+Fen> Nah, he has a court date the first week of July.
[13:10] <+tzip> k
[13:10] <+tzip> And why am I talking about this?   The whole thing makes my skin crawl


	As you can see we are all here for you when you return. We will begin a petition to get the governor of Michigan to pardon you and set you free. We have no doubt that the charges will be dropped and you will soon be released. You will return to irc to thunderous applause and resume your opship in #christiandebate.
