Dear Mom and Dad. i’m a way i hat to write This or maybe will not read it, but if you will i would like to have you read it, it would help me a lot.
i’m sorry for what i did in a lot of ways caus i know i hurt everybody, and you and mom did all you could to rise me up right and you all ways help me when i got in bad with something But this time i would like you not to do any thing to help me out. i hope you will understand . . . it would make me happy if everybody well go on just like anything didn’t happen. the cops up here have been more than nice to me but these dam reporters, the next one that comes in here is going to get a glass of water.
