This document was first created on Friday, July 31, 2009 and was most recently revised on Thursday, June 26, 2014.
This collection of letters, sworn legal declarations, affidavits, and other documents, is a sampling of hundreds from around the world spanning decades.  It attests to the consistency of Free Lazor's lifelong exceptional character and confirms notable achievements and events in his life.  These documents, many of them sent to the courts and parole boards urging Lazor's release based on innocence, paint a uniquely interesting life portrait and personal profile.

 ^ Letters from the Community
This is a mere sampling of over 250 letters written by a cross-section of society's most honorable citizens of high standing who have intimately known Mr. Lazor and his lifelong character.  Notably, hundreds of more recent letters and affidavits attest to these same traits of honesty, integrity, and character, after 29 years of being wrongfully imprisoned.  They are a verification of the credibility, character, honesty and trustworthiness of Free Lazor.

 ^ Parole Letters from Other Prisoners
Mr. Lazor isn't one to harmonize with prison social life, generally.  However, of the few friends that he's made among the prison population, and those with whom he's worked closely on prison jobs, a few have written letters that are relevant to his conduct in prison.
