Statement regarding appeal and conditions
To whom it may concern,
I am writing from FCI Tallahassee, where I am currently serving a 240-month sentence imposed on June 28, 2022 by Judge Alison Nathan in the Southern District of New York.
I wish to formally state that I maintain my innocence on all charges. I was convicted of crimes I did not commit and I was made a scapegoat for a man who is no longer alive to face justice. My trial was fundamentally unfair and my appellate team is pursuing all available legal remedies.
The conditions at this facility are harsh. I have been subjected to treatment that I believe is disproportionate to my situation. I have been moved between units multiple times and have been denied access to resources that other inmates receive.
Despite these circumstances, I remain committed to pursuing justice through the legal system. My appeal, currently pending before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, raises substantial issues including juror misconduct and evidentiary errors that I believe warrant a new trial.
I continue to believe that the full truth of these matters has not yet emerged. When it does, I am confident that history will judge me differently than the tabloid narrative that was presented to my jury.
I ask only for fair treatment and a fair hearing on appeal.
