It is with a very heavy heart that I write this. I am asking family and friends for support and prayers at this difficult time. Sadly my son, Sailiuta is being wrongfully accused. I can’t go too far into detail about the case but if you truly know my son and my family, then you know these accusations are FALSE. Sai is a Father of 4 beautiful children and doing anything to see his kids smile is his passion. He’s a genuine, loving, and compassionate person. Sai is a family man to say the least. He is an Honest man, a person with the biggest heart and a smile that could light a room from wall to ceiling. He is extremely empathetic and has big heart. We all know that you can’t believe everything you hear on social media. Did you know, it is estimated that up to 10,000 people may be wrongfully convicted of serious crimes each year? And sadly, of those people, demographics and income class play a large factor. So bluntly speaking, minorities and those with a lower income class are torn away from their families for crimes they did not commit. Please don’t let my son become one of those statistics. Now, I know these are hard times for everyone around the world. But my family and I owe it to Sai to assist and help as much as possible to ensure he gets a fair trial. We’re desperate at this point and seeking help from every possible avenue. So we are asking if you can please find it in your hearts to help us with raising funds needed to get Sai an attorney that will fight for what is right and fair! Based on conversations I’ve had with several Attorneys the average retainer fee will be between $15,000 and $20,000. This is what we’re trying to raise at this time to secure an Attorney. No donation is too small. And we understand if you’re unable to donate at this time. We at least ask for prayers, love, and support. We sincerely believe in the power of prayer! So please, pray, pray, pray, and pray for my son, and for all of us! My family and I would like to thank each and every one of you in advance for your willingness to help Sai at this time. With Love, The Mata’u Family
