Our Dear Supporters - we wanted to thank you for your continuous support. It is very valuable. What are we collectively seeking ? Freedom and justice, not only for our son, but also to bring awareness about others who are similarly situated under these oppressive unjust marijuana laws. We have emerged, from one struggle to the next, over the years, but we refuse to give up nor give in. We have been asked "when our faith will fail", since, year after year, we have experienced failure after failure ? Again, we have responded: "We will not stop nor quit until Edwin is freed from confinement and justice is carried-out." 19 years is a long time for a human life - to be so confined - for a non-violent marijuana crime. Only adequate funds will ultimately create a positive resolution and justice to our cause.

We will always be indebted unto you. Much love - and have a Merry Christmas full of blessings in the company of your loved ones. Maria Roque - and - Family.
