* April 3,2003 *

To whom it may concern,

When I think of prisoners of war I think first of the poor guys that were unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. But the POW's I'm thinking of were not in the wrong place, they were doing something that is gallant and brave. They are hero's. We must never forget them. You say, how could we ever forget them? Well, I don't think we will. We will do everything in our mighty power to gain their release, won't we? Even if we have to go half way around the world and spend 100 billion dollars doing it. I know first hand about these things because I was an 82nd Airborne Paratrooper and had to leave my comfortable place in the United States in service of my country. You see these POW's are innocent and deserve to be released. Can you imagine their horror? Can you try to think what you would do if you were in their place? It's kind of hard to do that, isn't it? You may think you can, but you can only try to convince yourself you would know. But you wouldn't know. These guy's and girls are thinking of their whole life and if they did everything they thought they would do. Is that not what you would think of? You would also think "oh my God in heaven please hear my prayers, please let me live!" "Let those one's trying to gain my release be successful in all their efforts." I promise you these are their thoughts!

You may be wondering what my point is in saying all of this. You see, I don't want to lose your attention. Prisoners of war are very important to us because we care, but what if we didn't care? Or worse yet, if we didn't know there were prisoners somewhere? I would say that there is something terribly wrong. Wouldn't you?... I thought so. I know of at least one prisoner that not very many people know about. He wasn't in the wrong place at the wrong time, he is gallant and brave though. I for one, will never forget him. He is a prisoner of a different war. The War of Justice. This is a war that is ongoing and has its own casualties. If you think you care you may need to think about that first, because it take's a lot of effort to get involved.

This man I'm speaking of is a man that was railroaded right to where he is like a lamb to the slaughter. He trusted all of us in the War of Justice to rescue him. But have you ever seen one of those movie's about one of those southern town's where everything seems to go their way? If you think that's only a movie or that's a thing of the past, you may need to look into this case of a prisoner of war, because apparently these things still happen. If I've lost your interest by now you may be one of those that is naive enough to think that these things could never go on, well it does in the case of Dennis Perry.

Dennis was accused of a double murder that happened 18 years ago. He was cleared in the very beginning by Joe Gregory, the investigator for the GBI, there was a picture line up of 12 people which included Dennis. It also included a guy that had bragged about doing the murders. The eyewitnesses of the murders picked the guy that was bragging, not Dennis. But Mr. Gregory did not stop there in trying to clear Dennis. He checked to see if Dennis was at work that day. Joe called Dennis' supervisor, he told Joe Dennis was at work pouring concrete until around 6 PM that day. Dennis worked in Atlanta. The murders happened in south Ga., 6 hr. away, about 8:40 PM!!!

After the witnesses picked the guy bragging, the sheriffs office, headed by sheriff Bill Smith, mysteriously let him go! Not only that, they also lost the picture lineup. In fact since then, the great sheriff has lost all the evidence related to the murders except one hair, which excludes Dennis 100% as a possible suspect! When asked on the witness stand how and why he no longer had any of the evidence his reply was quote unquote "I DON'T KNOW "!!!
During the 5 months before the trial, Dennis was offered several deals, the last being manslaughter eligible for parole in 40 months. The 40 month finished the day that Dennis was convicted! He would not take any deals! Yet he was convicted without any evidence in an 18 yr. old murder.

Bill Smith is still the sheriff in this town. I guess you should be very careful if you happen to pass through Camden Co. Ga. especially if you look like someone he wants to target for one of his unsolved crimes, he must be reelected you see! Ha Ha!

You see this largely unseen War of Justice going on in America was began long ago in order to protect our citizens, but it seems that it has actually overtaken some of our own, much like the war we are seeing now on our televisions, the difference being the amount of attention and care our politicians and citizens are showing in this war in our court system.

We do have innocent citizens in our prisons and I can prove it. There may be more than you think! If you thought for one minute I was telling you the truth you would be very angry, wouldn't you? I assure you if you would spend the time to do some checking you would find out. But why would anyone concern themselves if they didn't actually know the person they thought was innocent a prisoner somewhere? Do you personally know the POW's that were captured?... You see there is never a question about, will we do something about that, and there shouldn't be. You may not know Dennis, nevertheless a small amount of checking would let you know Dennis IS an innocent, brave & gallant POW.

I am asking for some attention in this matter of POW's in our own country, and I will send this letter to many important people, maybe some of your own constituents, I will keep a close record of who I send this to as a point of reference in the future so everyone will see who had an early warning of these atrocities that are going on in our courts.

Please spend your time and money to investigate this matter, just one innocent life is worth it! If you don't think so just ask Jessi Lynch!

I'm sorry for being so forward and assuming in this matter, but you see I've done some checking already, and I firmly believe there are more than 7 American POW's being held somewhere tonight!!!

Sincerely,
Daniel F. Perry Jr.

P.S. If you care about this matter contact me, we'll talk!

Now, if that doesn't get someone to listen then there are a lot of dead,uncaring souls in this world. We pray that isn't true. We pray for an ear,an eye,even a small voice.Someone to help us set Dennis free from this horror he has to live day in and day out.

We all have our seperate lives, as we've always known them. Oh yes, some of the family has past on. Dennis wasn't able to be there. He has had to miss out on so many..Birthdays,Anniversaries,Baby Births, Weddings and such.Yet the rest of us go on, day in and out. Forgetting that it is a priveledge to be FREE. Help us, set Dennis FREE.
