RE: Looking for some feedback & direction

[Haytham Faraj <haytham@puckettfaraj.com>]

Thank you for the list of witnesses.  Excellent work.  I just received your
discovery disk.  I will begin to go through it today and I have also decided
to send you a copy.  I don't want to send it electronically.  Please provide
me an address to fedex it to.

I've updated the attached 'Potential Character Witness List' with an address
for Colonel Rich Motl, USMC, which I had found earlier this weekend.  So,
this is the most current version (as noted by the Date Time Group at the
File Name's end (DTG11559UFeb11))

Haytham & Adam, I was hoping I might hear some feedback from one of you
gentlemen, by this time Tuesday afternoon.  Perhaps, I'm too
attention-starved or just going out-of-my-mind...  Anyway, can I assume
you're both pouring through the Govt's Evidence, and finding nothing
substantial?  Would any of my other questions (from Friday's note, below) be
considered worthy of conversation?

I guess what I'm trying to ask, somewhat delicately, is anyone going to talk
to me?  Please understand that, although I've got the steely-eyed exterior,
I'm still kind of shocked, surprised, befuddled that I was charged with
Murder, two weeks ago.  If I'm seeking too much attention, just tell me.  

Thanks, Maj Ted Card, USMC

To:  Haytham Faraj, Esq.

Haytham, at DTG 202030UJAN11 you gave me a Homework assignment, to generate
a list of potential character witnesses who might provide testimony at the
impending UCMJ Article 32 Hearing (and, (...hopefully not) a General Court
Martial).  I realize it has been over a week; but, locating POC Information
for many of these individuals proved to be quite challenging.  Regardless,
the list is attached to this eMail message, in .PDF format.  The list is ten
(10) pages long and, covers the entire 'working' length of my service as a
Marine Officer.  For most character witnesses (C.W.'s), I have included
extracts / phrases / snippets (all directly quoted) from Sections I or K of
Fitness Reports, which I had received from the specific potential C.W., for
the specific period mentioned in the left-most column.  You'll notice
thirty-four potential C.W.'s listed; unfortunately, there are a few, for
whom I have been unable to find POC information.

Haytham, I may have mentioned to you previously - I'm a big fan of the
'Powell Doctrine;' which mandates attacking the enemy with absolutely
overwhelming force, at the very beginning of the offensive.  Although, I
certainly do not wish to raise the ire of General Officers by calling them
to testify, it seems prudent when considering what a conviction would result
in.  Perhaps, CENTCOM CG, the ACMC, 2nd MARDIV CG, etc. could produce a DVD,
featuring themselves speaking briefly regarding my character and
temperament; and, that could subsequently be viewed by the I.O. and/or
Judge.?.?

Once you reviewed the attached document, please inform me regarding what is
wrong with it, what else it needs, etc.  Then, I would like to know what I
should be working on, next.  

Also, are we going to ask for an IMC?  

Amongst the Discovery Documents is there some statement (i.e., fantasy)
concerning the event (e.g., confused young man's Dream) wherein I allegedly
violated Art. 118?  I assume you have received the Government's 'evidence,'
by this time...

Regards, Ted
