Letter from William "Whispers" Goehler
to me—first one

Wed 10/14/20

S'up Dude?
Yea, Anthony may have mentioned to you that I'm reaching out to a few of you A. Fac. Alum chums. How are you over there... where most all A-Fac. residents now reside? The only thing different there at C is the threat of returning to A, I suppose.

You may also know that I was over there long enough in August to have twelve years of property reduced to 6 sq. feet before I understood what the program would be like there. So now I'm here!!:) I'm already on the yard crew—after a month or so adjusting to a new celly (after six years solo)... so it's all good as can be—for now.

How 'bout you? How are you weathering this COVID program? It certainly reduces the numbers on the yard and in the dayroom, doesn't it? Way too much cell time for most! Unless you're assigned a critical worker post, of course. How in the hell that exempts COVID's impact is a mystery to me, but whatever! Hey, whether or not you're working—write me back and let me know how these past few years have been for you.

I'm sending along an opportunity for you to do a few (19) free courses through my SPO enterprise (this is the route I took when chapel time became so difficult). As you can see by the http, your loved ones can get certificates right along with you too. :)

And other than that... I'm sending along one of my S.O.U.L. interviews I wish you'd do—truthfully (anonymously) for me to add on my blog site for the public to peruse (http://betweenthebars.org/blogs/420/william-goehler). Dude! This travesty must be exposed—and amplified somewhere along the line.

And I say that still, after 23 years inside—soon to be going to BPH Suitability hearing for Elderly Release. Terrified, I am! I'm a good candidate to get out... but once out, my reputation out there will have the DA and their goons on my heels trying to trip me up somehow. It doesn't take much, as you well know.

And with that said, I'm done here for now and await the slant of your pen acknowledging this effort to build a bridge—and your willingness to being these free courses. This COVID program provides plenty of time, and these courses are simple enough to get through all 19 booklets in no time.

Or if you just want to write me, that's okay too.

Be Blessed,
W.
