Friend,
I'm writing to you as a last resort.
Because right now my family is up against more than we can handle on
our own.
This is a photo of me with my son, former Deputy James Johnson of the
Williamson County, TX Sheriff's Department.

James dreamed of being a police officer ever since he took his first
"ride-along" in a cop car at the age of 18.
How could we ever know, back then, that one day he would find himself
the target of a nationwide political movement directed and financed by
billionaire George Soros?
But crazy as it sounds, that's exactly what's happening to him!
AND IF I HAD ANY OTHER OPTIONS, I WOULDN'T HAVE TO FOR YOUR HELP TODAY
TO SAVE MY SON FROM THIS LEGAL NIGHTMARE.
[[link removed]]
On the night of March 28, 2019, my son conducted a routine traffic
stop.
But instead of pulling over, the driver -- a convicted drug dealer
named Javier Ambler -- floored the gas and tried to flee.
Ambler's speed quickly exceeded 100 miles per hour. Along the way, he
collided with signs, trees, fences, and other roadside objects.
The chase lasted for 22 minutes and spanned two counties. At any
moment, another driver or a pedestrian could have been struck and
killed by Ambler's reckless driving. It was a deadly serious
situation.
Eventually, the chase ended when Ambler crashed head-first into a
tree.
My son ordered him to get on the ground at gunpoint. Ambler refused.
James ordered again, and still the driver did not comply.
That's when another Deputy and an Austin Police Officer arrived on
scene. Together, they tried to handcuff the giant man -- but he kept
resisting and fighting to get back on his feet.
Now, my son is strong. . . but this man was twice his size. .
NEARLY 400 POUNDS. And even together, the three officers could not
subdue him.
So, to put a stop to his fighting and get him handcuffed, they
deployed a taser again.
Still nothing -- he kept resisting.
They tased him once more and they were finally able to get him into
handcuffs.
That's when they noticed that Ambler had lost consciousness. Without
missing a beat, they immediately began life-saving tactics and radioed
for an ambulance to respond with high priority.
Ambler was rushed to the hospital -- but despite the prompt medical
attention, he was declared dead on arrival.
According to the medical examiner, Ambler's "morbid obesity" had
given him "congestive heart failure" and "hyper intensive
cardiovascular disease,"" which, in the heat of the struggle, caused
his death.
Soon after, an internal affairs investigation by my son's department
found that the deputies did nothing wrong, and a second independent
investigation by the Austin Police Department concluded my son and the
other officers committed no such crimes and did not cause Ambler's
death.
BUT TWO YEARS AFTER BEING CLEARED, MY SON WAS CHARGED WITH
MANSLAUGHTER!
So what changed all of a sudden?
Well, Travis County -- where Ambler crashed and the chase concluded --
elected a new District Attorney.
A George Soros-funded District Attorney . . . a Bernie Sanders and
Elizabeth Warren-endorsed District Attorney . . . a socialist District
Attorney, who campaigned not on fighting crime -- but on cracking down
on police.
His name is Jose Garza, and in just over a year in office, he's
charged dozens of cops with crimes while letting countless violent
criminals go free!
He's spent tens of millions of dollars (and over a half million in
this race alone) installing progressive prosecutors who will be soft
on crime and tough on cops.
Somehow, my son James got caught up in something much bigger than
himself, and now he's lost his job and his life savings trying to
defend his good name in court.
IF YOU HAVE THE MEANS, WILL YOU PLEASE HELP MY SON STAY OUT OF PRISON
BY HELPING HIM AFFORD THE MOUNTAIN OF LEGAL FEES IN FRONT OF HIM?

Thankfully -- right as we thought all hope was lost -- we got a call
from the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund (LELDF).
This incredible organization helps innocent cops who are unfairly
prosecuted for split-second, life-or-death decisions they make in the
line of duty.
They provide legal counsel, expert witnesses. . . whatever is needed
to make sure wrongly accused police officers get a fair shake in
court.
And they do it all free of charge!
They're funded entirely by the generous support of big-hearted donors
like you, who can recognize a miscarriage of justice. . . and want to
help fix it.
So now I must ask you the question I've been afraid to ask this entire
letter:
Will you please help my son James win his court case and clear his
name by sending LELDF the best tax-deductible contribution you can
afford today?

Most friends of LELDF sent one-time donations of $35 or $50

Whatever you can spare today, I hope you'll know how grateful I -- and
my entire family -- will be for your help.
With deep appreciation,
KAREN DABNEY
P.S. my son has four children of his own. His youngest is only 7 years
old. If James is convicted and receives the maximum sentence of 20
years, they'll be grown adults by the time he's finally set free.
So please -- PLEASE -- won't you send the best donation you can spare
today to help keep my brave son out of prison and with his children,
where he belongs? Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
