Featured case in Glamour magazine, June 1999.
"Jailed Unjustly: Does This Woman Deserve to Be Locked Up for 24 Years?"
Doing hard time for her husband's crime
Amy's husband was Charles "Sandy" Pofahl, a graduate of Stanford Law
School, successful Dallas businessman, and twenty years her senior. They
were married for a few years, until she could no longer handle his
alcohol problem.
In 1989, they had been separated for a year and Amy had her own
promotional company, Prime Time, in Los Angeles, when her nightmare
began. She found out that her estranged husband had been arrested in
Germany for manufacturing and distributing ecstasy (MDMA). He mistakenly
thought it was legal there at the time.
Some of the ecstasy was traced to the US market.
Amy went about helping her husband out during his early confinement and
trial. As a result, she also became a target of the US government.
"Federal agents promised that if I refused to help them gain the
information against my husband, they would destroy my life. This they
did."
Friends and business clients of her thriving, new company were
intimidated by agents. The agents told people that Amy was a drug dealer
and associating with her would get them in trouble. Then, Amy was
arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit the crimes previously
attributed to her husband and his co-defendants. She was also accused of
money laundering.
Amy refused to plea bargain or 'cooperate' in giving information that
she didn't have. On top of that, she was misinformed about her rights by
her court-appointed attorney, who failed to present certain evidence or
call witnesses in her case, as she requested. Further, the prosecutor
was able to move the trial to Waco, Texas where the judge's court was
reputed to have a 100 percent conviction rate.
Her husband received a six year prison sentence in Germany, of which he
served four. Incarcerated since 1991, Amy is still serving a 24-year
sentence for his crimes.
"So much for keeping the streets free of criminals by demanding harsh
mandatory minimums, because every single person who pled and was guilty
in my case was handed his freedom in exchange for testimony.
"I can only speak for myself, but I am a witness to the type of women
this drug war has attacked and victimized, and most do not belong in
prison. If laws do not change, I will spend the majority of my adult
life in prison. Is that fair to me, my family or the taxpayer? Who does
it benefit? Please investigate my case and others. Visit a federal
institution and witness for yourself who is filling these overcrowded
prisons. You will be shocked. Please vote to change these unjust
laws."
