“Witam!
I have never asked for money as I always managed to make my own way… day by day… loop by loop…
But something horrible happened to me recently and I need your help. I have spoken to my lawyer and obviously I cannot say anything about my defence at the moment other than that I vigorously deny any wrongdoing. Once the trail is over, I will be able to answer your questions.”
