Ralph Lee Van Pelt Jr.

When I was faced with the impossibility of prevailing in a head to head battle with a seasoned DA. With absolutely no legal knowledge, support, or experience facing the nightmare of unethical conduct and retaliation for not tucking tail against misconduct and collusion by my own attorneys. I felt my ...words were being ignored or misinterpreted in the numerous pro se motions i drafted as I learned the legalities and procedures. This man did what no other judge or attorney had the backbone to do, he believed in me. I filed til my time ran out all while being in exile from the injustice that had been inflicted by unethical men and their weaponization of the law against a poor defenseless but determined individual. When one attorney answered a grievance i filed this year he informed the state bar an order existed in which compassion and clemency was granted 2years prior and my sentence and probation had been terminated. Justice did ultimately prevail for an injustice that cost me nearly a decade of my life and did a number on my health all bc of a dirty DA that was caught red handed concealing proof of my innocence but he would never admit it like a man. Thank you RVP you are a truly noble and honorable man the justice system needs men like you and the discernment you possess to bring judgement and most of all compassion to this evil and corrupted world. Youve changed my life forever and for that i am truly grateful and humbled. SRoach
