<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am writing to ask for your
assistance in locating the Petition for Compassionate Release for Ramiro
Muñiz. His petition was sent to a component of the Office of the Attorney
General over a month ago. His medical condition is grave, and he is struggling
to live.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.65pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ramiro Muñiz is at FMC
Lexington Federal Medical Center. At age 75 he battles life-threatening chronic
conditions including aspiration pneumonia, COPD, atrial fibrillation, and
arteriosclerosis. He is dependent on oxygen, and he ambulates by wheelchair
with assistance. He suffers from delusions, memory loss, and confusion.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.65pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Muñiz meets all of the qualifications
of the Compassionate Release Program and he needs the care of his family. His wife is gainfully employed and she is able to assume full responsibility for his
medical and financial needs. Her home was approved as his place of residence
over a year ago. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.65pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ramiro Muñiz is a beautiful man who made
contributions to his community. He helped many people throughout his life and
he is greatly loved by them and his family. We ask that you do everything
possible to save him. Please help locate and process his petition.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Letter From Ramiro Muniz to his wife and friends</div>
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The medical staff were of the opinion that I was not going to
survive the illness I was enduring. They kept sharing with each other that
I was not going to make it, but deep inside I was of the strong opinion
that I was not going to die without your presence and your holding me as you
always have from the first time that we met to this very day of our lives. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I would pray to God
Almighty and ask Him to please keep me alive for you, for the family, and for all. I was not done with what He was seeking for humanity knowing that I had been chosen to carry the cross of freedom, justice, and love forever. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There is much turmoil and it is all about spirituality in every part of the world. It is extremely sad, because our beloved savior, Jesus Christ, gave
His life on the cross, so that we could love each other just as He loved us
and continues to love us this very day. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The time has come for us
to demonstrate to God, to His son, Jesus Christ, and nuestra Virgen de Guadalupe that we are spiritually strong. We shall demonstrate to the world that in reality our time
has come and we must return to God's ways and thank Him for the life that He continues to give us!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
God knows
that I am stronger in my spiritual beliefs,
prayers, and meditations. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Amor, </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Family and supporters of Ramiro “Ramsey" Muñiz traveled to Philadelphia and the White House to send a message to President Barack Obama, Democratic presidential nominee, Hillary R. Clinton, and the Democratic Party. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 0.25in;">Pablo Delgado, Jorge Lopez, and Monica Acosta-Zamora traveled to Philadelphia and the White House with a message of Freedom, Justice, and Love.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Muñiz, is remembered for helping many people and for his positive contributions during the Chicano Civil Rights Movement. He was a noted voice for Mexican Americans, Chicanos, Hispanics, Latinos, and others during the late 60s and 70s. As a result of his political impact, he became subject to scrutiny and legal problems which resulted in imprisonment several times. Supporters hold that his legal problems were subject to unjust legal proceedings, mistakes, and cruel and unusual punishment imposed with political motives.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px; text-indent: 0.25in;"> Muñiz</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 0.25in;"> ran for Governor of Texas under the Raza Unida Party, an Independent Political Party, and he faced sudden turmoil after bringing about inclusion for Mexican Americans, Hispanics, Chicanos, and Latinos in the political arena. He </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 0.25in;">has served over twenty-five years of a life sentence in federal prisons for non-violent drug offenses. He was among the first in the United States to be sentenced under the Three Strikes Law, which tied the hands of federal judges regarding sentencing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 0.25in;"> At 75 years of age and in grave medical condition, he spends 90% of his time in a wheelchair. He is currently awaiting a decision on his Petition for Compassionate Release. Family members and supporters feel a sense of urgency, as Muniz's health continues to worsen.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;">His wife Irma has stated, "My husband, a beautiful soul, is 75 years of age with chronic, debilitating physical conditions. He was a model student who graduated from Baylor Law School with honors and he made history when he became a candidate for Governor of Texas in 1972 and 1974 so that he could become a voice for others. His accomplishments and current imprisonment caught the attention of Dr. Andres Guerrero, Th.D. of the Harvard School of Divinity. Guerrero currently published his book, Freedom, Justice, and Love, which pertains to the life and unjust imprisonment of </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 16px; text-indent: 0.25in;">Muñiz.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> In his 1994 trial, prosecutors did not allow evidence which would have exonerated him. He has served nearly 25 years of his sentence of life without parole. How do Americans ever reach our leaders? When faced with unfair practices by the government, to whom can the average citizen turn?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 0.25in;">Professional organizations call on the Hugh Hurwitz, Acting Director of the Bureau of Prisons, to grant the Petition for Compassionate Release based on its merits</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 0.25in;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 0.25in;">.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 0.25in;"> </span>The National League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) and the American GI Form have sent numerous resolutions to the white house seeking the immediate freedom of Muñiz. They ask why the Petition for Compassionate Release for Ramiro R. Muñiz has not been granted. He is elderly, in grave condition, and he has never committed a violent offense. His conduct in prison has been good for 25 years. These criteria make him a strong candidate. We strongly urge Hugh Hurwitz, Acting Director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, to locate and process his Petition for Compassionate Release. We also call on President Donald Trump to pardon Muniz and demonstrate that he is fair and willing to grant pardons to others as he does those who are close to him..

POLITICAL CAMPAIGN TO FREE RAMIRO “RAMSEY” MUÑIZ TAKES CARAVAN FOR FREEDOM TO
PHILADELPHIA<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The family and
supporters of Ramiro “Ramsey: Muñiz are taking a <i>Caravan for Freedom</i> to Philadelphia to get the attention of
President Barack Obama and Hillary R. Clinton, presidential candidate for the
Democratic Party. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Pablo Delgado
and Jorge Lopez of McAllen, Texas, and lifelong supporters of Muñiz will arrive
in Philadelphia to take their message of freedom to the Democratic National
Convention, and garner support for the release of Muñiz.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Ramsey Muñiz,
who is remembered for helping many people, is respected for his positive
contributions during the Chicano Civil Rights Movement. He was a noted voice for
Chicanos, Mexican Americans, and others during the 60s and 70s. As a result he
became subject to scrutiny and encountered multiple legal problems. He has
served over twenty years of a life sentence in federal prisons for non-violent
drug offenses. Muñiz was among the first in the country to be sentenced under
the Three Strikes Law, which tied the hands of federal judges regarding
sentencing. At 73 years of age and in deteriorating health, he spends 90% of
his time in a wheelchair. He, along with family members and supporters, seeks a
Compassionate Release or Commutation of Sentence from President Barack Obama
before he leaves office. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">His wife, Irma
has stated, “Muñiz, a former attorney and candidate for Governor of Texas in 1972
and 1974, is in deteriorating health. Many in the Mexican American, Chicano,
Hispanic, and Latino activist communities throughout the country have called on
the Department of Justice and the Obama Administration to ensure that his
petitions for Compassionate Release and Commutation of Sentence receive due
consideration.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .25in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Organizations
such as the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) and the American
GI Form have sent resolutions to President Barack Obama, seeking the freedom of Ramsey Muñiz. They have asked
why name of Ramiro “Ramsey” Muñiz has not been listed among the petitions
granted. Muñiz is elderly, in poor
health, and he has never having committed a violent offense. These criteria
make him a strong candidate for Executive Clemency. Hispanics strongly urged President Obama to grant his immediate freedom but he did not do it, leaving many people shocked and questioning the morality of all leaders.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14.6667px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">Ramiro “Ramsey” Muñiz has a noteworthy background. As a graduate of Baylor Law School, he was a practicing attorney and Texas gubernatorial candidate in 1972 and 1974. Muñiz brought positive political change for Mexican Americans, Hispanics, Latinos, and many others who lacked a political voice. As a result, he faced several legal problems in 1976 and 1994. In the 1994 indictment, information that would have exonerated him was not given in trial until the end. By then it was too late. The Court counted his 1976 case twice (indicted in two different courts), and enhanced his sentence to life without parole </span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14.6667px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">Muñiz has submitted a Petition for Commutation of Sentence. Deborah Leff, Pardon Attorney, has confirmed receipt of his petition, which is based on his age and health conditions. He is an excellent candidate. Muñiz is turning 73. He suffers from chronic, debilitating health conditions that could not have been foreseen when he was sentenced in 1994. He uses a wheelchair more than 80% of the time. He is</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><u style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">not</u><span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">violent, and he has demonstrated good conduct through his incarceration.</span></div>

Organizations, (National LULAC, Mexican American Democrats, Tejano Democrats, the American GI Forum, Friends of Justice), along with United States congressmen, religious leaders, and others have written to President Obama, supporting the efforts of the </span><i style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">National Political Campaign to Free Ramsey Muñiz</i><span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.6667px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am writing to extend
our deepest gratitude to you for sending prayers and blessings to Ramiro “Ramsey”
Muñiz, who has been unjustly
incarcerated for almost 22 years. We thank God for your correspondence, as he has
suffered unlike any other because of who he is. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ramsey Muñiz suffers from an incarceration
that has been disregarded for years. He is a good and loving person who graduated
from Baylor Law School and became a candidate for governor of Texas during the
Civil Rights Movement. Muñiz represented
Mexican Americans, Hispanics, Latinos, Chicanos, and others who lacked a political
voice. He brought positive change for many. As a result, he suffered
imprisonment several times, and he is now in prison for life. Innocence was
impossible to prove.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ramsey Muñiz, a Catholic, has always been spiritual.
During his childhood he helped his grandmother to pray for the sick. His faith
remains strong today. He maintains faith in God, Jesus Christ, and La Virgen de
Guadalupe. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dr. Andres
Guerrero, a graduate of Harvard School of Divinity, learned of the incarceration
of Ramsey Muñiz. He visited him
at the federal penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kansas. Dr. Guerrero witnessed his
immense suffering and today he is writing a book about his life and present
incarceration. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have asked
Deborah Leff, Pardon Attorney, to forward the Petition for Commutation of
Sentence, submitted by Ramiro R. Muñiz,
to President Barack Obama. Muñiz
He is 72 years of age, and he suffers from chronic, degenerative health
conditions (hip fracture, herniated disc, anemia). He is not violent. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If your schedule
were to permit, we would be honored for you to visit Ramiro “Ramsey” Muñiz. He is at the Federal
Correctional Medium Institution in Beaumont, Texas. Your historical visit would
represent the first steps toward his freedom, and give hope to thousands of
prisoners and families who suffer. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As our spiritual
leader, we ask that you speak of this case to President Obama, and write a
letter of support asking him to grant the freedom of Ramiro “Ramsey” Muñiz, 40288-115. To learn more about Muñiz, please visit our website and
blog at <a href="http://www.freeramsey.com/">www.freeramsey.com</a> and <a href="http://www.freeramsey.blogspot.com/">www.freeramsey.blogspot.com</a>. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We extend our gratitude
and prayers to you for all you have done for humanity.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">I am writing to express my support for a Commutation

from deteriorating medical conditions which could not have been foreseen by the

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The life sentence imposed on Ramsey Muñiz is
cruel and unusual. As a president who defends human rights, we ask
that you strongly consider the application of a man whose long imprisonment has brought about suffering for him and his family for many years.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Dear President Obama:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">We ask God, Jesus Christ, La
Virgen de Guadalupe and the holy spirits in heaven to pray that the Castro
family will continue to benefit from the efforts and historical contributions
made by Ramsey Mu</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ñ</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">iz for Mexican Americans, Chicanos,
Hispanics, Latinos, and others whose lives were changed for the best. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Through the Raza Unida Party
he and others advocated freedom and justice for all. As a Texas candidate for
governor, Ramsey Mu</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ñ</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">iz awakened others about the
contributions of Mexican Americans and others who had been excluded by a
political process that included the Democrat and Republican parties. He later
suffered for bringing this to light and for bringing about a positive change that
he predicted forty years ago.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The historical contributions of
Ramsey Mu</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ñ</span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">iz cannot be denied yet silence remains, and he
continues to suffer (over 21 years) from unjust incarceration. This is known by
many leading Hispanic Democrats who have done little to seek justice in his
case. The Honorable Lloyd Doggett, The Honorable Gonzalo Barrientos, and The
Honorable Gene Green are among other supporters, who <u>have</u> provided assistance,
and we are grateful for the leadership qualities that they have demonstrated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11.0pt;">Eventually truth will come to
light. The Democratic Party will learn that Hispanic
votes will not automatically be given, and the Republican Party will learn that
injustice still exists. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

imprisoned for nearly twenty years. He was a distinguished football star and scholar.
He was awarded a full scholarship to Baylor University where he served as an
officer of the Fellowship Christian Athletes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Ramsey Mu</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ñ</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">iz received a Bachelor of Arts and Science Degree in
Political Science, and a Juris Doctorate Degree from Baylor School of Law. He

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 11.5pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">In his 1994 conviction, Ramsey Mu</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ñ</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;">iz was pursued without cause, tried by an all white
jury, and sentenced to life without parole. Information that would have
exonerated him was withheld, which was in violation of his constitutional, civil,
and human rights. For these reasons, we continue to demand justice and freedom.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
