Dear Michael,
I just finished watching your story on A&E’s “American Justice” television program and felt led to write you and also send you a copy of my book,
“Once Life Matters: A New Beginning.” I am shipping you a copy under separate cover. You should receive it soon.
It saddened me to watch what a mess substance abuse had on your life. I am sure you never thought for a minute while into your party scene you would wind up in prison for 10-20 years. This same thing happened in my life back in 1980. I ultimately served a six-year prison sentence, however it could have been 60 years! You will find out all about it in my book. I hope it inspires you.
My generation helped start all the mess yours’ inherited. We also ran wild on the streets of New York and Hollywood. Not many of us suffered any immediate consequences; that all came much later. It is almost what happened in your life. Everything seemed fine while it lasted, didn’t it?
I hope things turn out positive for you when you go before the parole board in September of this year. Please know you will be in my thoughts and prayers at that time.
You still have your whole life ahead of you, Michael. I know God has a different and wonderful plan and purpose for you, as your place your faith and trust in Him.
I hope you enjoy my book.
Warmest regards,
Marty Angelo
