Convicted for asking for help when suicidal

DaveAsperg

It seems bizarre to me to have been convicted for doing what is the basis of Samaritans advice. I was convicted for a 5 second phone call asking for help from a financial advisor who had lost me £250,000. The police and a large bank were prosecuting me and the media only reported the police allegations.

i am appealing but not confident I will survive.

i wondered about writing a book about autism in the criminal justice system

would anyone be interested.

julian Assange is in a similar situation and so was Gary McKinnon

the media love it all

thoughts?

    Dave,

    We'd all love to help you - but it's really very clear that you don't want help - you have your own crusade going on - even though you know you're fighting a long lost cause.

    Everyone says that you need to put it behind you and move on - and use the fire inside yourself to light up the world rather than incinerating those around you.

    I just hope you can move forwards someday.

    I feel bad because I want to help you but I don't know how. I know you are a good person. I feel it in my bones. I have met a lot of bad people in my time and I know you are not one of them. I can see you are honest. This much I do know. You are ten times the man of any other man out there.
