As per the instructions, I am writing to plead \u2018not guilty\u2019 to this charge. Although this option is said to result in this matter going to court; it is my suggestion that the charges simply be dropped. This suggestion comes out of respect for tax payers, and my request that their hard earned money not be wasted in such proceedings. As there is no evidence of my involvement with this alleged \u2018crime\u2019, as well as the fact that I am not granted my 6th amendment right to face my \u2018accuser\u2019 (a camera); I see no way the government could prove my guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. I also see find no legal requirement for me to implicate someone else in this process, as it is the government\u2019s responsibility to prove a person\u2019s guilt. It is also my 5th amendment right to remain silent on the matter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #000000; text-align: justify;\">If it is the government\u2019s decision to move forward in this matter, I would request copies of any evidence the prosecution may have of my involvement in the \u201coffense\u201d; as well as, all maintenance records for the camera(s) involved.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #000000; text-align: justify;\">Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #000000; text-align: justify;\">Nathan Cox<br \/>\nUnited States Army Veteran<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The author of the letter states that his charges were dismissed without having to go to court in the matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found this on the interwebz and decided to save it here, at the same time sharing it with you all.
