Re:

i think quiet is best. but i keep receiving phone calls from friends asking that i say something so that they use it to defend themselves. 1 fought all the way to dep attny general. 2. media doesn't like it but the charges were all prostitution related. money for sex. at his home. they came to his house for 200 dollars. acosta letter detailed a defense assault. not a cooperation. 4. ten years ago. i made some very bad choices. I received 30 MONTH SENTENCE.

served the same as anyone else. 13 months incarcerated is the same for all persons sentenced to 18 months. no special shortening. second chances. clean record.

The problem is always the same — girls were teenagers. Doesn't matter that they were prostitutes — it's the age. And now several have gone on record and camera.

I understand the instinct of your friends, but nothing short of a full and complete mea culpa is worth doing, and legally you can't do that — at least not now.
