Don,

What Donnie did not mention is that he was seriously injured, could easily

have been killed, and spent a LONG time in the hospital and in recovery and away

The scumbag who did this deserves to serve each and every day of his

sentence. Please write letters.

Gene Gandy, JD, LP

Former District Attorney for Fannin County Texas
