          dear aicap,
          hey there! i've had your address for like two years, and meant
          to write a long time ago, but for some reason never did. it
          probably had alot to do with my just-failed attempt to get my
          sentence transferred to canada under the bilateral transfer of
          offenders treaty. i spent 2 1/2 years going through the
          application process, invested alot of hope into it, got approved
          every step of the way - canada corrections, solicitor general,
          u.s. dept. of justice, and the application was finally denied
          by the governor's office (bill richardson). in any case, i was
          pretty crushed & probably figured there was no use at that
          point even to contact you. ironically, i'm now hearing that
          since bill richardson's failed presidential run, the state is
          now interested in getting rid of me, but now the consulate tells
          me steven harper's government is denying almost everybody,
          and as a sex offender, my chances of getting approved again
          are almost nil. sigh...but perhaps it's for the best. i'm at
          the halfway mark of my nm sentence, and if i do my time here,
          when i get extradited back to canada (fall 2014) i will have no
          record, no parole. transferring my sentence would mean a
          probable earlier release, but also a decade of parole time.
          anyway, i don't want to write too long a ltter, as i don't
          even know if your organization is still in existence, so a
          brief history: i'm a native montrealer, born & raised, but
          lived a decade in vancouver, which i consider my second home.
          in 1992/93 i came to new mexico for an extended stay (about
          6 months - fall '92 - through spring '93) which straddled my
          18th birthday. throughout that time i became involved in a
          ridiculously foolish sexual relationship with a minor many
          years my junior. it was consensual, but morally and undeniably
          wrong on my part. it was a manifestation of regularly self-
          destructive behaviour on my part at the time. i had come to
          new mexico to try and escape a heroin addiction. i soon
          returned to montreal & continued with my addiction through
          years & into vancouver. eventually i got (semi) clean, went
          back to school and started to repair my life. then, in the
          summer of 2000 my house was raided by the vancouver police on
          unrelated charges. upon seizing my computer, police found
          thousands of pages of chat-room transcripts, which (again,
          foolishly) contained descriptions of the illicit affair here
          in new mexico years earlier. the vancouver police forwarded
          the transcripts to the new attorney general, who filed charges.
          i was living in amsterdam by that time with a longtime
          boyfriend. i was arrested on a trip to san diego in fall 2001
          and extradited to new mexico, where i found to my horror i was
          facing a possible 250 years in prison. every count of oral sex
          performed on the minor was an 18-24 year sentence. i was
          charged with 7 counts of that alone, along with a slew of
          ridiculous other charges. i spent 2 years in solitary protective
          custody - no tv, no radio, very few books, after watching
          virtually all of the convictions on the flimsiest of evidence,
          often getting hundreds of years in prison, i realized my only
          hope for eventual freedom was to take the best plea i could
          get. i had no idea if they'd contacted the minor involved
          (now a grown man) on whether he'd testify against me or what.
          anyway, the best deal i could get was a 54 year sentence with
          a 24 year cap (30 year suspended). as i know i'd be deported
          immediately upon release, i knew that suspended 30 years could
          never come back to haunt me in a parole or probation violation.
          the laws of sentencing back in '93 allowed for 50% good-time,
          so in the end i'd end up doing about 13 years (2 years in
          county jail was "flat" time). so, i'm hoping to return to
          canadain november 2014 - about 6 1/2 years. i still have
          charges to face in vancouver, and expect to serve maybe a year
          or so (or maybe not).
          well, that's the reader's digest version of my story. i look
          forward to hearing from you and finding out what you do.
