Hi Dymitri,

This is just to let you know that I've transcribed your blog post on the Ashton Kutcher case, which is now the second of yours that I've typed.

Whilst I am admittedly more than uncomfortable about the concepts in some of what you have written, as I have been on the other side of this as a sex abuse victim, I am a strong believer in the idea that everyone should have the right to their voice being heard (within reason) truthfully. It is in this sentiment that I hope I have done a good job of your transcription, and not, I should add, that I am at all endorsing what you have written.

Nevertheless, I did find a number of points that you made were very important and concepts that I could certainly agree with, such as that an entire person's life is not defined by their crime -- or more specifically, that merely because someone has committed a crime does not mean that the positive experiences that others had with them cease to exist.

As with your previous blog, you are an engaging and eloquent writer and I look forward to reading more of your work.

Kind regards, Andromeda

Dear Dymitri,

This is to let you know that I have just transcribed your blog post, and I hope that I have done a decent job. I wonder if you could confirm whether you wanted the misspelling of "prosecutors" to be left in as spelt, since I note it was spelt correctly elsewhere and appeared to be for ironic effect? I have marked this with [sic]. If you are able to see this, please do let me know if the transcript requires correction.

As a non-binary person, whilst I disagree with some of what you wrote at the beginning of your piece, you are a talented writer with an excellent command of the English language and made some very good points which were made eloquently.

Kind regards, Andromeda

Dear John,

Thank you very much for sharing your story. I'm a non-binary software engineer and former professional transcriptionist who has transcribed your post for Between the Bars. I hope I've done a decent job of transcribing it so that your experience can be read and indexed on the wider Internet. I've kept your style, punctuation and capitalisation as close to the original as possible apart from the obvious.

Whilst I've never had my own experience with the criminal justice system, I have faced mental health challenges for my entire life. I do sincerely hope that you achieve success in getting the treatment and conditions that you deserve and a fair chance towards your rehabilitation in society.

Kind regards,

Andromeda

Hello Milo. I’m a friend of your new penpal. Thank you for sharing your letters and other thoughts here. She has told me a bit about you and I learned more today as I read your blog. For instance that you are a great plumber. What a terrible system you’re caught in. How amazing you’re staying strong after all many years. I hope you keep up the fight and know many people believe you and care for you.

Greetings,
Hey Tavares, I don't know if you remember me. I wanted to ask if you got my second letter. Maybe it wasn't delivered or your response wasn't.
Take care, best regards,
Emilia
