One day a friend of mine asked if my teenage daughter wanted a job transcribing some notes.
After her first day I asked about it. She said it was hard because the writer was some doctor and soldier who was in prison and had to write with a rubber pencil.
I said “you’re transcribing Terry Lakin’s prison diaries?”
She said that was his name.
Turns out that my friend was on Col Lakin’s defense team and was publishing the diaries to the defense website.
My daughter also babysat a few times for the Lakin’s and we met them once or twice.
An honorable man who clearly deserves a pardon.
If Lakin is still alive, maybe someone should ask for a pardon & reinstatement of benefits.
Wow
