Dear Friend,
Don Siegelman will be 70 on February 24, 2016.
Spending this significant year in prison, when all indicators pointed to a career in national politics; when over 100 Attorneys General claim that his trial was a travesty of justice; when legal experts point out that the "crime" of which he was convicted was never a crime until his conviction made it a precedent - all these facts point to a real downer of a birthday for the former Governor Don Siegelman.
But if you know Don, he is finding ways to help fellow prisoners, making his voice heard on issues of prison reform and continuing to have high spirits (even after months in solitary confinement.)
Let him know that you are thinking of him on this important day!!
Reach out to him at Oakdale Federal Prison!
Remember when 8 years ago, 60 Minutes ran a special on Don's prosecution on his birthday? Now that was a birthday present! It is available to watch below.
