A Plea for Leniency
Michelle wrote a sincere and heartfelt letter to you asking for leniency. We are doing the same. I hope you do not ignore our cries and you will choose to show some mercy. Give her one last chance. Let her show you, and the world, that she has grown. Jail will not help her, it will only hinder her and her efforts to help others. Please consider our plea, and if nothing else cut this sentence in half. Thank you Judge Mitchell for your time.
