Christine are you beginning to see the cards that are being stacked against you? The political double standard, the cronyism that has persisted for years, and now the blatant bias in this case against you.

While I do not believe that you are innocent in all of this by any means, I do believe that everyone is due equal treatment under the law, I even think there may be some documentation written about it called the 14th Ammendment to the U.S. Constitution. The magistrate that ordered you tethered should re-read it, and then offer an apology for his court behavior. I also think that the court has unwhittingly set a precedent in this case by denying your right to pursue work, while Mr. Kilpatrick is free to come and go, last I looked you were both charged with nearly identically crimes, why the double standard? Please I do not want to hear that he has to travel because he is a mayor of major U.S. city, his last trip was purely personal in nature, and with the age of video conferencing there is no need for him to leave the county.  Any other citizen would have had their bond revoked and would have been jailed until trial after a trip to Texas for personal relaxation!

How much longer are you going to remain silent and let this man belittle you through his arrogant actions? In a span of just a few years you have gone from a position of prominence with a six figure salary, to divorced, unemployed, with a damaged reputation and possibly a wasted education as a lawyer to be if convicted. Why? What do you owe this childish thug in a man's body? The only thing I can think of is that there is something worse yet that you know about that will come out if you testify against him. But I ask you, would you rather the information come out because you chose to come forward with the truth on your own? Or would you rather it come out in just another edition of this ongoing drama? Despite both of your best efforts everything that was attempted to be covered up has come out, and any other secrets will come out eventually. It is evident from recent photos that your soul is in agony, everyone can see it in your eyes, come forward and end all this drama and put yourself at peace before it destroys you completely.

I know the pressure must be enormous, but it is time, time to heal yourself, and time to come forward as the bearer of truth that this city so desparately needs before it is too late.
