PM's letter to Judge (Circa 2005)
Post 61189 (Junkmanlong1)
Here is the letter from docket 200. Which is on HOP-ON letter head paper!
Dear Judge Moskowitz and U.S. Attorney Spong:
First I want to thank you for the opportunity to speak before my sentencing. However, I was so nervous I was actually speechless and unable to articulate that I have always tried to do things the right way. I know that I have made mistakes, coupled with come bad legal advise and some bad business decisions.
All the shareholders that I have tried to protect will surely suffer if I am not at work every day, and my company now would suffer because my absence will surely cause my company to fail. As a result the people we both seek to protect will suffer in the end.
Secondly, but certainly the most important would be my children. It took me 2 years of fighting in court to get custody of 2 of my 3 children. The mother of my children constantly moved them around the state to keep me from seeing them. I am a devoted dad that loves his kids. I spent a lot of time, resources and money to get custody of my children. Now I am going to lose that. I now have 5 children, 4 of them live with me (Nicholas - 3, Peter Jr. - 11, Sara - 13 and Elisabeth - 14. Alexandra the 17 year old still lives with her mother). 3 of the children living with me are mine and I have 1 stepchild. I became my stepchild's daddy because her real dad died of cancer, I feel very blessed to be her dad. My kids will once again be uprooted from a loving and stable home that they have been in for the last couple of years. My children have been in counseling due to their mother's interference and constant moving around. The court even determined that Supervised Monitoring was necessary when the children were with their mother.
I have had tremendous remorse about this matter and am now anxious over my company's survival and the end result to my shareholders. Your Honor, I am truly sorry that I did not get to say this in court. I feel that you did not get a chance to see my entire picture.
Your honor, I am and always have been a proud American, and when I was approached to work with a branch of the federal government to protect Americans against terrorism and crimes against America I enthusiastically agreed. This government branch does not openly acknowledge that they are working with civilians and I am not at liberty to disclose the government branch, because of this I hope the court will keep this information confidential.
I would ask that you consider all additional information that I have talked about in this letter which I did not get an opportunity to talk about in court and to please consider adjusting my sentence so that I do not have to do any prison time but rather be under electronic monitoring at home and work. I can assure your Honor, that you will see that I can do more good out of jail, not only as a father and businessman , but as an American.
Again you Honor, I have the deepest remorse and I agreed to take responsibility for the outcome. However, again, I do not want a result that will undo what I have attempted to sustain.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours truly,
PM

Comment: Doesn't sound like a child abuser to me. Vindictive ex-wife and girlfriend, yes.
