Re: 	A Plea for A Commutation of Sentence on behalf of Matthew Hale #15177-424, 
U.S.P. – Max, P.O. Box 8500, Florence. CO 81226-8500

Dear Mr. Kupers:

I am asking the assistance of your office in bringing the above case before President Trump so that a serious injustice can be, at long last, rectified. Matthew Hale is nothing less than a political prisoner, incarcerated for his politically incorrect opinions and not for the matter with which he was charged and convicted on false evidence and in an unfair trial. Certainly he should be pardoned if for no other reason than his attorney was seriously deficient if not criminally negligent in presenting his “defense.” 

I offer to you for consideration the transcript of the trial [link: freematthale.org] and it is my belief that any fair minded and intelligent person will immediately recognize that Matthew was convicted absent any actual, valid proof. Even with regard to the supposed motive, he had no logical reason to threaten any person much less a judge who had found in his favor in a prior case. This is the last thing Matt Hale said to the government informant on the taped conversation which was played during his trial, "I know the law brother and I'm not interested in breaking it"

The greatest gift of all—mercy—freeing Matthew Hale represents not only mercy but justice! Restore Matthew to his family and friends through the pardon process, and, at the same time, help restore decency and justice to the American judicial system. Myself and many others are praying that you in your capacity as Executive Officer of the Office of the Pardon Attorney will bring this matter to the attention of President Trump so that this injustice can be rectified and Matthew Hale made a free man once again.

                                                                                            Sincerely,
