Quote
Dearest DDF Family!

I cannot begin to express my gratitude and thanks for the outpouring of love which I see, I am humbled by my fellow DDF'ers who took it upon themselves to join the fundraising effort and help me in my time of need. It gladdens my heart to be part of such a family, who will go out of their way to help their fellows in need, whether it is financial or otherwise. I will be forever grateful to all of you, to those who donated the prizes, to those who donated money, and to those who made this a reality.

Thanks again!



What's this all about?
If you've been following this thread you may know that a longtime DDF'er who has a young family was arrested for being on the scene at the time of the sting operation.  Many of you have probably even met him in the real world. Several generous DDF'ers have donated prizes to be raffled off to bring attention to the defense fund created on his behalf.

Not to be that guy, but are we sure the legal fees will even amount to 25k?
FTR the retainer for the lawyer is $75,000 just until trial and then it goes up! So B"H we were a huge help.

I would let the winners of raffle 6&7 worry about how to get in touch with the sponsor. For the little bit I have read about the sponsor there is nothing to worry about. If I was a betting man I would bet this has already been taken care of.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half
