Excerpts of Dec. 13, 2011 Letter from Mrs. Muniz:
Dear President Obama:
Ramiro R. Muñiz is my beloved husband. He and I have never abandoned our faith in obtaining a Commutation of Sentence to end nearly twenty years of great suffering for him, myself, and our family...
My husband, who is 69 years of age, has suffered greatly for nearly twenty years. To many, these years represent half of their lives. Our families have also suffered, asking many others why a loving person with no violence must continue to endure suffering for many years of his life...
The love of our family remains strong. We believe that there is no greater strength than family unity. We will never abandon the hope of obtaining my husband’s freedom and we will continue to ask you and other leaders to help us.
