Hat tip to Jack Blood at Deadline Live for sending this letter

Cele Castillo

Free Cele Castillo

They say that revenge is a dish best served cold. But I prefer, “The pen is mightier than the Sword”. The latter is actually why I am writing this letter to the American people.

As most of you might know, I am at the tail end of my 37-month sentence that was imposed by the Honorable Federal Judge, Royal Ferguson. I am known here, at La Tuna Prison Camp, as the only U.S. political prisoner. Furthermore, no thanks to a corrupt corrections officer here at the camp, the majority of the population is aware that I was once employed by the Department of Justice.

My time at La Tuna Prison has been an experience of a lifetime, another chapter to my interesting life. I am now actually on the other side of the fence. I have now rubbed elbows with members of notorious gang organizations from around the world, from the Russian mob to the M-13s from Central America.

However, I have to admit that I have also met several organized crime families’ elements, which includes doctors, lawyers, bankers, etc. They say that Federal Prison camps are for non-violent offenders, but what the Bureau of Prison have not realized, is that the violent prisoners in the camps are the ones that never convicted or caught for their murders and assassinations. This is where for some reason or another, I am still a magnet for intelligence. Most of them came to me for advice because of what I used to do for the government. You can read about in my new story’s title, “Corruption at the Highest Level for the Western District of Texas”. It will start with non-other then a corrupt Assistant United States Attorney, Mark Roomberg with his cronies’ bosses and federal agents assigned to my case.

In the later part 2010, after I was denied my appeal, I submitted what is known as my U.S.C.2255. The U.S. Magistrate in San Antonio, Texas accepted it. He gave the government 60 days to respond and they did. I was given several days to respond to the government’s response, which I did in the proper time that I was given. Early part of this year, the US Magistrate John Primomo made his memorandum and recommendation to the hearing judge denying me my allegations against the government; however; he requested that I respond to his recommendation. To make a long story short, the following is what is happening in my case so far.

On my U.S.C. 2255, I proved with overwhelming evidence the allegations on Prosecutorial Misconduct, Perjury and outrageous government conduct. With transcripts submitted as evidence it was proven without a reasonable doubt that the government committed heinous crimes against me, yet Primomo failed to address this in his response numerous allegations that I made against the government. With the approval of the individual that I sold the majority of weapons, I gave the government the information of whom I sold the guns to. The individual was not a prohibited person, which meant that he was not an illegal alien or a convicted felon. This is confirmed by my former attorney in this case, Roberto “Eddie” de la Garza, who should and may still be disbarred for holding evidence that could have cleared me. All this information is available in my court records for the public to see. Roomberg falls into his own trap by admitting that he lied to the court and the evidence is overwhelming.

You have probably seen in the news lately, there are allegations against the ATF & ICE on their sting operation, “Fast & Furious”. I am here to tell you that this operation, initiated in South Texas, by the same ATF and ICE Agents involved in my case. The evidence will show that according to their snitch, Jay Lemire, in my case, stated that the weapons that he was selling to me were going to drug cartels in Mexico. In February of 2008, both ATF and ICE agents followed me to Pharr Texas after their snitch sold me several handguns and shotguns. Their surveillance witnessed me turning over these weapons to the same individual who bought my guns. The weapons “walked” in this case the individual was not stopped or searched. There are several reports that I have that will confirm my allegations. This information can also be found in my case files.

Once again, why am I not testifying before Congress on this miscarriage of Justice?

I was also denied to tell the truth before the Iran Contra committee.

Sincere Thanks to Jack Blood, Danny Romero and and the hundreds of real freedom fighters who have kept my story alive. Please help us to expose this hypocrisy.

Respectfully Yours,
