John Scartz is Seeking Pen Pals

Sunday, February 23rd, 2020

For a few years, I have been corresponding with an Ohio prisoner, John A. Scartz.

I just don’t have the time to be an adequate pen pal, and because of his lengthy incarceration, he has lost touch with most friends and family. John tells me, “I just want someone to be a friend to correspond with, who will not be judgmental.

John is 45 years old and widowed. He has a son who, tragically, is very recently deceased, leaving John in even more need for support.

You can write John:

John a. Scartz
A465-477
Mansfield Correctional Institution
POB 788
Mansfield OH 44901

You can also correspond via Jpay.com. To establish contact, you just need his name, his state (Ohio), and his prison ID (A465-477).

Please Send Bob Halsey a Birthday Card

Sunday, February 9th, 2020

Bob Halsey turns 91–or possibly 92–on February 18th. I am surprised he is still alive. He has been in bad health for years.

Bob is an innocent man who has been in prison since September of 1993. His lawyer tried to obtain him a compassionate release. But there was no place for him to go.

Bob was railroaded by many of the same characters who sent Bernard Baran to prison. Baran’s prosecutor, Dan Ford, was the trial judge. Jane Satullo was the chief interrogator of the children.

You can learn more about his case.

Here is the address for cards:

Robert C. Halsey
W-55045
POB 1218
Shirley MA 01464
