23 One Year On And A Change Takes Place

33 absolutely unbearable? May be you can suggest how I tackle my problems of the future, for me there simply is no light at the end of the tunnel.

When I leave here I don’t even have a pair of shoes. I will have to start all over again but the question is how do I start all over again?

I simply have no will to live and I just could not cope with living on my own as I know I would not be able to fend for my self.

To think of buying a property is really out of the question. What do I do? What do I do?

Another reason why I cannot think of writing my life story is because I am truly ashamed of many of the things I have done and I don’t really want to broadcast my evil past for every one to read. I have confessed to the Lord and I just hope He will forgive me.

You asked me how I felt about you becoming a Christian 30 years ago. Well I was quite proud of you but felt you were a little over the top but I never mocked you in any way. My heart break with Karen Mead and the collapse of Tudor Charm and my divorce I will expand on that some other time so please David not at the moment, you may have to wait until I am released.

At the moment I am taking each day at a time and I keep praying that I will be acquitted of this horrible conviction, which I hope will give me added strength to face the future.

I am sorry my letter is so depressing, all I can do is pray to out the Lord for strength and guidance.

Once again David thank you again for not forsaking me and I am sure you will be always there to give me support.

Please give all my love to the Children

Regards Michael. 23 One Year On And A Change Takes Place

Just after one year I noticed a remarkable change in Michael’s outlook and his state of mind. All for the better. I gradually felt able to read and digest the National Bureau of Investigation Report (NBI), which clearly clears Michael of charges made against him. This record goes on to a recommendation that Fr. Shay Cullen, Michael’s Complainant, be deported on the grounds of him being and undesirable alien in the Philippines. (See report appendix 01)

Here is Michaels letter:

Dear David, July 3rd 2000

Just a few lines wishing every thing is o.k. with you and you are being to sort out how you will be able to see your daughter on mutual terms.

There is not movement with regards to my case with the Boar of Pardon and Parole because as of today my prison records have not been sent from the prison document section to the Board. Every thing moves so slowly it
