Roger Barry Davis 136 Golden Isles Drive #202 Hallandale, FL 33009 Phone: (305) 797-6788 To Whom It May Concern, My name is Roger Barry Davis, and I am writing as the father of Craig Davis with a humble and urgent request regarding his upcoming report date to FCI Atwater. The past several months have brought overwhelming challenges that have left me entirely reliant on my son as my sole source of support. Due to my own disorientation during this crisis, I failed to inform Craig until 48 hours beforehand that my home, along with my life savings and assets,was scheduled for foreclosure auction on June 5, 2025. Despite his immediate efforts to file an emergency motion to halt the sale, the court denied the request. The property was sold for nearly one million dollars below its appraised value, effectively wiping out my equity and placing my long-term stability in serious jeopardy. I now have ten days from the auction date to challenge the sale, and I urgently need Craig's assistance with the following: • Legal efforts to challenge the foreclosure sale • Sorting and cataloging a lifetime of personal belongings • Selling my boat and other assets to secure funds • Arranging potential relocation to Los Angeles • Ensuring I have stable housing and continued access to 14 daily medications essential to my health Without his help, I face the very real risk of homelessness and a potentially life-threatening lapse in medical care. Craig was previously granted a reporting extension for family matters, but during that time, I was either incarcerated or involuntarily hospitalized, unable to communicate the full severity of my circumstances. Though I initially resisted his efforts to transfer me to a medical facility, I now recognize that such a move may be necessary,ideally in California, where he could still provide limited support before surrendering. I fully acknowledge the unusual nature of this request. A brief extension would allow Craig to implement permanent safeguards for my health and housing, enabling him to serve his sentence with peace of mind. As an ex-attorney with 51 years of legal practice, I understand the gravity of this appeal. However, the emotional and mental strain from this experience has affected my ability to reason clearly under pressure, and I respectfully ask the Court to consider the importance of compassion in such exceptional circumstances. Thank you sincerely for your time and understanding. Respectfully, Roger Barry Davis June 9, 2025 Case 1:24-cr-00040-PTG Document 66-1 Filed 06/10/25 Page 1 of 1 PageID# 365
