Greggy's "letter" shows no forgiveness. He accuses Bernie of "stalking", a lie, alleges TM had a great case for filing a PFA, another lie (it was not granted), says TM was "justifed" in posting libelous claims on a blog (not true - libel is illegal), calls Bernie a "coward" (is this because Bernie didn't stand idly by while someone accused him of pedophilia, stalking and assault?). <br /><br />Gregory is sick, and a criminal. He's come out and commit more crimes against innocent victims, just like his good buddy. It's in their blood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-18605499661864952582014-08-24T11:05:59.143-04:002014-08-24T11:05:59.143-04:00I will believe it when I see it.

The good news is he has been reading the Bible and has become a much more devout Christian. He has been housed with a convicted attorney who has helped him with matters of law and life. He is less angry and more forgiving of those who have wronged him. At one time he was very angry with many and thought of revenge, no more. He was also angry with you Bernie for your actions but apparently he is now feeling more forgiveness towards you and the others who have put him in this position.<br /><br />He hopes to be released soon and dedicate time to helping people with both a better understanding of God's love and forgiveness but also how to learn to love and forgive those who make you suffer.<br /><br />I think this may be the start of a new life for Mr. Gregory. He may be a great help to others who are in trouble.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-34678519355873707942014-08-23T23:24:49.680-04:002014-08-23T23:24:49.680-04:00State grants are available for after care, accordi...State grants are available for after care, according to CCAP.
