Another Bad Choice I Made Before Going To Federal Prison
About this episode
When I was a defendant, I made a mistake—I went silent for years, then called an old friend asking for a sentencing letter. He refused. He was disgusted that I only reached out when I needed something. I was embarrassed, but I learned a hard truth: relationships need nurturing. If you're facing federal charges, don't disappear. Stay in touch. Show people you're worthy of their support. If you do that, they'll be there when it matters. If you don't, you'll face sentencing alone.
