About Me


This page is constructed by the friends and family of Aaron Channel, who has been in prison since October 5, 2001 for a crime he did not commit. It is maintained in his remembrance by those people. All mail sent here will be printed and forwarded to him. Important news regarding him and the case will be posted in bulletins. As his wife holds his legal power of attorney, he has given her permission to respond to questions about the case to those who would ask. Replies may be delayed, due to both opportunity and the prison mail delivery system, but mail will be acknowledged as this page is continually updated. Please also visit Aaron's new currently-in-progess Multiply site:..

I WOULD ALSO APPRECIATE PEOPLE SIGNING MY GUESTBOOK, SHOWN BELOW. That said, if anyone wants to send me snail-mail, my address is listed at the end of every blog entry. Thank you! In loving kindness, Aaron Channel.
