The State vs. Joshua E.Mason
Donation protected
PLEASE HELP OUR FAMILY
I am facing 15 years in prison away from my young daughter and family for growing cannabis in TN. I am asking for HELP in defending myself in court against these charges.
I was released on a $39,000 bond and informed I did not qualify for a public defender. I was told to return with counsel. I was able to put a $1,000 payment down on an attorney. Upon returning to court I was informed that a public defender was now willing to speak to me. A female public defender took me in a room and informed me that the DA was willing to offer me a $500 fine and probation. I was ecstatic and immediately informed them I would take the offer.
In a bizarre twist, upon learning I had retained other counsel, the public defender tore up the deal in front of me and stated, "Oh:I see you have a lawyer. This deal is no good." I was crushed.
My attorney was able to get me a deal for $4,000 and if I cannot pay it the state will press forward with charges. To add insult to industry, I received a $54,000 fine from the TN department of, and now been served a lien on my possessions all to a very old "tax stamp" law for unpaid taxes on the cannabis .
I am asking you to please donate to help me get a lawyer that will represent me the way I need to be represented. Or, if you know a lawyer that will represent me pro-bono, please let us know!! Any contribution adds up and really does make a difference in my freedom. and keeps me with my family, I appreciate any and all help you can afford, to help me avoid prison for cannabis. I am a hard-working family man who looks forward to putting this past me and moving on to the next chapter of my life.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
Regards, Josh Mason and Family..
