December 18, 2020 Defendant Douglas Perlitz Donald W. Wyatt Detention Center150 High Street Central Falls, Rhode Island 02863 Dear Doug, As part of your rebuttal to the Government's Sentencing Memorandum, you attempt to defend yourself against claims that you and your brother (from Colorado) threatened to physically harm government prosecut ors. In a June 12, 2010 call between you and your brother, you wonder how a "vocal supporter" of the prosecution could have learned about defense counsels' recently- concluded investigative trip to Haiti sufficiently quickly to be able to send critical emails to counsel while they were still traveling. You and your brother speculate that the government may have been to blame; the brother in Colorado speaks of "prosecutorial misconduct", "highly illegal" government conduct, the amount of money spent on the case and a "waste of taxpayer dollars", and the possibility of obtaining information in that regard from the Department of Justice. I will assume that the "vocal supporter" you are referring to, Doug, is me, Paul Kendrick. And yes, I did, indeed, send email correspondence to your attorney, William Dow, while he was in Cap Haitien, Haiti staying at the Mont Joli Hotel. Now, you knew perfectly well at the time, Doug, that word of Dow's arrival in Cap Haitien spread like wild fire. I received word from Cyrus Sibert that Dow was traveling with armed guards. Dow had already begun trying to make contact with several of the abuse victims. They were scared to death, Doug, frightened by Dow and his gun slinging thugs. The boys told Cyrus they did not want to speak with Dow. Some of the boys hid. It was important to me and Cyrus that Dow be put on notice that he must not intimidate or threaten the victims in any way. Keep in mind, Doug, that the abuse victims were being called liars by your friends and associates in Cap Haitien and Fairfield County. The Haitian boys you paid off with rent and food money had physically threatened the victims. But, most of all, the boys were afraid of you because of your past threats right up until the moment you were arrested. So, Doug, your conspiratorial theories about the government's conduct are absolutely nuts. As I keep saying over and over again, the only thing you're sorry about, Doug, is the fact that you got caught. You'll do and say anything to minimize your jail time. Sincerely, Paul Kendrick 207 838 1319 ____________________ "La vraie reconstruction d'Haïti passe par des réformes en profondeur des structures de l'État pour restaurer la confiance, encourager les investisseurs et mettre le peuple au travail.
