I clerked in a criminal law firm. Most of our defendents barely had the brain power to negotiate the act of buttoning a dress shirt.

Don't look for hidden meaning in their letters.

(Unless the letter is written by Charles Manson. An attorney I worked with somehow got his name in a prison newsletter, which somehow got the attention of Manson, who wrote him a bizarre, rambling letter seeking help. The letter was ignored until Manson wrote again. All it said in big letters was, "WHY HAVEN'T YOU WRITTEN ME BACK?!?!?!" The attorney wrote a very pleasant letter explaining that he was not licensed in CA and guided him towards a nice Legal Aid society).
