Dear Friends and Supporters,

Harold Taylor was recently convicted of a drug 
charge in his home town of Panama City, Florida.
Harold’s case has coincidentally received unusual 
attention by the Florida court which fast-tracked 
his conviction after many months of inactivity. 
The jury deliberated less than 15 minutes in the 
one-day Panama City trial. This prosecution is a 
result of a new judge and prosecutor taking over, 
not upon any substantial or new evidence. Two 
prosecutors actually worked to present this case 
over a $20 attempt-to-purchase.

Harold Taylor is scheduled to be sentenced in Panama City December 9th.

What you can do to support Harold

Please write letters addressed to the judge, 
asking for leniency in sentencing and for probation.

Address your letters to Judge Richard Albritton, 
Bay County Superior Court, Panama City, Florida. 
Please DO NOT send your letters directly to the judge.

Mail your letters to Harold’s attorney:
John Beroset
1622 N 9th Avenue
Pensacola, FL 32503

If you have letterhead, please use it if you can.

Please personalize your letters and mention how you know Harold Taylor.

Helpful Talking Points (you need not include all 
of them as we want letters to be unique – not form letters)

    * Harold is devoted to his family
    * He is a torture survivor
    * He has no history of drug involvement
    * Harold has had no contact with the legal 
system for a lengthy period of time
    * He has mentored young people for years, 
inspiring countless numbers to reject gang and 
gun violence and instead aspire to become 
valuable contributors to their communities
John Beroset needs to receive your letters by November 25th.

And you can write to Harold Taylor (note the 
corrected zip code since our last message)
