Heidi has over 200 letters from people who have known Ted, from family, friends and neighbors, to fellow soldiers, medical colleagues, patients' parents, clergy.

Ted has never used drugs. Monaco prosecutor Daniel Serdet slandered Ted with that smear from the first--in Thomas Sancton's article in Time December 20, 1999--yet the charge was exploded by Princess Grace Memorial Hospital's toxicology tests' results of negatif negatif negatif shown on DatelineNBC "Who Killed The Billionaire?" November 21, 2000. The transcript is on the TedMaher.com site, though Dateline removed it from theirs soon after the broadcast, claiming a "lack of interest".

Ted had drafted a letter of resignation from the Safra team, as his hospital Columbia-Presbyterian had finished its nursing strike. Ted was headed home to his family--not concocting a bizarre caper to "curry favor".

Ted had Edmond Safra's respect.

The same false confession extorted in the three-day police beat three years ago was delivered today in a monotone--surprise, surprise.

In Monaco the state-supplied pre-tend de-fenders have pursued--not the truth--but an out based on the false confession. Donald Manasse said this month, "My job is to keep Monaco from looking bad." And that's the defense.

Monaco never allows recanting a false confession.

It would make the police look bad.

A friend who did a case in Monaco the year before Ted was seized and his wife kidnapped said his client had been extradited from South America on a verbal complaint and held indefinitely on the whim of the judge d'instruction, later to be released without charge or conviction.

"Monaco can do what it likes," my friend said, "It's a police state."

The defendants at the trials of Joseph Stalin confessed to elaborate plottings against the state. Signifying nothing save the power of the state.
