July 29, 2008 Honorable Gregory M. Sleet Chief Judge, United States District Court J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building 844 King Street, Fourth Floor Wilmington, DE 19801 Re: United States v. Thomas Smith Criminal Action No. 08-08-GMS Our File No. 2008-00080

Dear Chief Judge Sleet: Thank you for granting the Order allowing Mr. Smith to attend a private viewing of his deceased mother. The United States Marshal's service did everything in their power to comply with your order. Unfortunately the viewing was cancelled due to the family's inability to raise the necessary funds associated with the funeral expenses. Mr. Smith is very appreciative of everyone's consideration and assistance in this matter. Very truly yours, /s/ Keir Bradford Assistant Federal Public Defender
