RE: Case No. F-964321, Milwaukee Police Department Inventory No, 1599004.
Dear Ms. Hegarty:
I am a defendant/Appealle in the above mentioned case. I write to you today with the hopes that you will forward a copy of a transcribed conversation between a Timothy Dembry and Christopher Jones. This conversation was recorded as a follow-up by a Det. Larry Devalkenaere in regards to the case for which I am a Coconspirator.
The contents of this discussion was never revealed to myself nor my trial counsel. Recently I've combed through both the discovery I received before trial and recent discovery I obtained since my conviction. In this endeavor I came across an incident report which refers to this recording and a property inventory sheet listing (1) Micro tape. I now would ask that you release a copy of the tape or alternatively a transcript of it's contents to myself at the above listed address.
Thank you for your time and attention in this matter !
Respectfully Yours,
Edward L. Jackson Sr.
