A Miracle has Happened
Dear Friends and Loved Ones:
The news that my case was overturned with a Directed Verdict of Not Guilty is a bright light in a very dark tunnel.
I want to thank each and every one of you for all your love, prayers and support during these five years of heartache.
I will admit from the bottom of my heart that each and every one of you has helped me through this experience. This experience was not easy for many of us but everyone had something special and unique to offer. Truly, without the love and support from all of you----I might not have made it through this experience.
Because of this journey, I have grown more mature, and I have learned many lessons about people, the law and life in general.
I would like to share a saying that spirit sent me through a movie of all things but had an overwhelming impact on me. It will always hold true in my heart because of how strong it brought my sense of illusion into reality.
"Some lessons cannot be taught
They must be lived to be learned"
For some of you, that saying may not have the impact it had on me. However, I have learned that life is one lesson after another and no matter how we experience each lesson there is only one essential element that is required to succeed in life. That element is love.
I believe until we learn that all of us are connected on a much higher level we will encounter difficult times as we awaken to find our true self.
I must admit, this experience was a surprise but it has definitely lead me down the path to find my true self and it has given me an understanding that we are never alone no matter how dark our despair.
The world is struggling right now and even though I have plenty of healing to do, I plan on bringing as much love and light as I can into this world, especially with the younger generations including my daughters.
In closing, my words will never express the gratitude I feel, so I will share a statement from a prolific inspirational writer:
"There are those in the world----imprisoned,
in pain----for whom the difference between choosing
life and death lies simply in knowing that someone cares"
My heart goes out to all of you and may God bless each and every one of you for your kindness.
Love always,
A grateful warrior of light and love,
Mike
Message from Michael
Hi everyone and thank you for visiting my web site.
Dear Friends and Loved Ones:
I would like to start by saying, I have made many mistakes in my life but by no means, could I ever make a mistake of committing such a violent crime for which I was convicted.
Simply put, I did not commit this crime and the evidence proves it. I am not a violent person. I never have been and never will be. Of course, most of you have not had the opportunity to hear the truth. Listening to the news media can only mislead you.
Thank God I have been blessed by some and especially one, to have this web site. The information on this web site is the truth. The truth was not heard in court.
God, in his own time opens our eyes and gets our attention one way or another. I am a little confused with how our creator works sometimes, but I must admit “this experience” though extremely painful, has taught me valuable lessons about people and life. Yes, I now understand what it is to be wrongfully convicted, But more important, I have learned the simple values of everyday events such as being with family, smelling a flower, watching the sun set, or even just getting a hug from a friend or loved one, to name a few of the things that make life worth living.
What hurts my heart the most from this experience is not being there for my daughters, I was elated when the Lord blessed my ex-wife and me with two beautiful girls. I couldn’t wait to spend many happy moments with them while they grew up. Now, I look forward to seeing them for an hour once a year.
I could go on and on about the corruption in my case and the serious lack of a competent lawyer. But complaining will not fix the problem. Hopefully in this situation love will prevail.
I have never been good at asking for help, but I am afraid this time I need to push my ego aside. I cannot receive my freedom without prayer, support and financial contributions.
For those of you who care, whatever way you can help me reunite with my two daughters, I will be forever grateful. My children’s hopes are high for me to be in their life again, and I will do my best, with your help, to not let them down. I love them so very much.
I know it’s easy to get caught up in this fast paced world but please trust me when I say, take an extra moment to really enjoy the time you spend with love ones. Only the good Lord knows what life has in store for us, so don’t take life for granted. Every moment is precious.
With love to all of you.
A humbled spirit.
Love,
Mike
