We are all equal, but some are more equal than others. My case in general also shows how the justice system is not necessarily equal by any stretch of the imagination. My current lawyer in NY who is handling my appeal submitted his brief. Now we wait for the DA’s response and then the Judge’s rule. If that gets denied, I have one more shot at the top NY court which is the Appellate division. In NY State, Supreme Court is lowest, not the highest court like in US courts.

I am very aware of the poor thought processes that I followed that led me to where I am today. I am lucky to have access to a PhD psychologist whom I have been meeting with almost every two weeks. Over the last few years we have covered lots of stuff and while it is not quite as easy to show as, for example, replacing the engine in a car and then it works so much better, my inner workings are under constant adjustment.  ¶ 9:07 AM
