Foreign national/mental retardation
issues in Apelt case
"The German-born man (Rudi) didn't speak until he was 7 or 8, and attended school for the mentally retarded." |
Michael Apelt
- This text has been arranged together with my lawyer -
Hi, my name is Michael Apelt, I am 36 years old and a German citizen. I am innocent and sentenced to death together with my brother Rudi. We are on Arizona's death row for 10 years now and have been fighting to find some kind of justice which makes it even harder for us as we are innocent of charge!
I am placing this page to reach out for someone like you, who may find in her/his heart and soul the love, kindness, understanding and compassion for my desperate situation on death row.
I am looking for an open and sincere
friendship which can eventually help me
in my loneliness and desperate need
of support because to be quiet frankly:
I cannot provide for myself the basic
needs of everdays life !
Furthermore, I urgently need financial
aid for my complex death penalty case in order to save my life and not
to be barbarously executed, as I am innocent.
So if you think, that you are the person
with the love, kindness, understanding,
compassion and willingness to help
and support the good cause that an innocent person will not be put to death
again which happens so frequently, please write me!
Please address your sincere letter directly
to the following address below,
I will reply to all letters. Thank
you in advance for your big heart and human compassion. The address is:
Michael Apelt # 80735
