Heard from Bill White in Loretto

Heard from Bill and he is doing fine. He sounds so jolly, one almost would think Loretto is a great vacation spot.

I think I misjudged Bill on the sealed motion to amend letter that he sent the court. Sounded like he was reverting to his old overthrow ways. He can’t do that anymore. But I was wrong. He is trying to get that speedy trial and he DID have a valid legal point to make with the judge. I can’t go into it, because it might embarrass a witness somewhere.

I know nothing about the law, but I guess it might be that when a person is already serving a prison sentence, the speedy trial is a moot issue. But you know Bill. He is tenacious when he wants something, and he wants that speedy trial.

Brief non-legal, non-sensational update from one of Bill’s first batch of emails:

I arrived at Loretto FCI yesterday morning and got my phone and email turned on this morning as well. I have not felt this good about being in a prison in a while. LOL. The weather here is beautiful, I am well rested and back in possession of my books from before I left, and deeply immersed in the history and development of Byzantine and post-Byzantine Italy. LOL.

Many things have been going on. First, I have been in holdover or lockdown for the past month, meaning I could only send three letters a week. I apologize if [anyone] couldn’t get one of those letters, because many of them have been going to the Courts.
