Letter # 26
The Dead Man's Robberies

May 25, 1982 Florida State Prison, Death Row Cell 19-2111

Buzz, I got your letter yesterday, and for a change I will agree that Jenning's should burn. Him and that other sick bastard Goode that loves to fuck little boys. Neither one of them can live on the row with the rest of us cuz they wouldn't last very long at all. They keep them on Q wing (where Valdes was murdered, Q changed to X and now it's back to Q) away from everyone else. (It's also where the death chamber is located).

You wouldn't believe how many people here on the row would love nothing better than to get hold of Goode or Jenning's, and I'd pull the switch myself on either of them.

What I told you in my last letter was all true. There are lots of places I robbed and never touched the person, or a few times I knocked them out. Most of the time I just made them lay face down on the floor, ripped the phone out, and ran out the door.

In Michigan I robbed five places in one night and never had to touch any of the men or women, but the pigs won't tell about that cuz it takes away their cold blooded killer story about me.

You will never understand me, or what happened towards the last month of when I was out there because you only see what you want to see and you believe all you read and what the pigs said at my trial. You won't believe the truth cuz you'll have to admit you're wrong about me.

I told you before that Bonnie had alot more to do with everything than was thought at first. Like I'm the bad killer and she was just with me. Well someone must be starting to believe me because when Bonnie found out I'm not going to cover for her anymore, in fact I'll be ready to help her get where I am, then she plead guilty in Volusia County. That's probally why there was no big thing in the papers or on the news.

I just found all this out last week from a petition filed in Pennsylvania for an extension on the time to get me up there for my re-trial on a murder case that was overturned. It's says that I've not been available to them because I'm an essential witness in the case of Bonnie, and she must still be dealt with in Flagler and Brevard Counties.

I guess they have told Bonnie that I'll testify at her trial if I have to, and if I do, I'll tell them everything she was involved in from the first day I met her, and she'll be much better off if she pleads guilty to it all. I don't think Brevard County will give her any bargain for a life sentence.

I don't know if she plead guilty to first or second degree murder, or if she's been sentenced yet in Volusia County. I hope she get 25 years, at least!

My hearing was held in Florida Supreme Court, and that punk ass Woodson (his trial judge) tried to get cute on me cuz right after that he dismissed my attorney that the court appointed to me. I don't know why, I wasn't told the reason for that move, so now I gotta get another attorney quick.

I'm not worried about it at the moment, but I'm gonna find out the reason my attorney was dismissed. Til Next Time. Jeff
