Dear Friends and Supporters of Lawrence Brose, The most important thing to communicate here is to express the gratitude that Lawrence is feeling right now for all the support he has received over the duration of this nearly six year ordeal. 108 letters of support are being submitted to the Court to ask for leniency in sentencing.
When the plea deal was presented by the DA to Lawrences attorneys, it offered Lawrence a chance to leave this nightmare behind. Please remember that Lawrence is still living under court mandated probation requirements as he has since the beginning of the allegations. This has not been an easy road for Lawrence, but the letters of support have certainly lifted his spirits and reminded him of his own value. Family and friends, fellow artists, colleagues, artists he has supported, legal justice advocates, distinguished members of the Buffalo community and representatives of the national art world he has worked in, all want to put this chapter behind so he can return to be the artist and arts mentor he is. The sentencing hearing is taking place on Wednesday, September 3rd at 3pm in the new federal court building, (2 Niagara Square in downtown Buffalo) in Hon. Chief Judge William M. Skretnys court. Please take a moment to realize that all of your support has been deeply appreciated and helpful. Sincerely, The Lawrence Brose Defense Fund Team ********************************************************************************** We still need to remind everyone that freedom from this prosecution has cost Lawrence dearly, financially and otherwise, and of the need to continue to raise significant funds for Lawrences mounting debt.
