Re: Sentence reduction
There are no set examples or "forms" that will likely do
any good. The letters should show how the person knows
defendant PERSONALLY and why the defendant is a good
candidate for release.
Some letters will doubtless come from those who knew the
defendant before he was incarcerated. Why was the crime
a one-time event or how has the defendant changed since he
has been imprisoned (e.g. successfully completed substance
abuse treatment).
