Spread the Word 'Help Tim get released'

if you find in your heart you want to leave a review so that pertinent parties can see how badly the story needs to come to an end. by letting him out.
I was part of this podcast and I've known Tim since 1981... I dated him for nearly 5 years. he had never once smoked a cigarette or joy or did a line of coke or even drank alcohol. pure 100% athlete. got mixed up with this joker of a boxing promoter, who set them up to die that night, thinking Mark Gastineau would then go on to fight George foreman. the whole purpose of the two fights between Tim and mark.
there was a video of the second fight but particular people kept it hidden even through the court hearing and I found it in 2017 or so and posted it on youtube. you could see both of the fights how one he was clearly clear as a bell and the second one he is clearly out of it. watch them feed him water in between every single round and then clean it up. Mark was 45 minutes late to the his own fight waiting for the drugs to kick in so that Tim would be out of it by the time they got in the ring. look at the difference between the way Tim's stature is in the first bite and then look at his arms down by his side just gazing into the crowd at his second fight.

he was left for dead, his quadriplegic sister was threatened for 10 years if he released a book he was writing. the guy snapped. I've seen hundreds of shows on television where people kill their families go on The run burn them stab them all and get 15 years. he's been in 27 years already.

and all he does is preach positive loving words and quotes from two powerful books he discovered.
teaches yoga as well. everyone who knows him speaks of him the exact same way for the past 30 years even the people who just recently met him.

give it a go and listen to all eight episodes.
let's all wish him well and hopefully he will be released December of 2022.

leave a review of what you thought of the podcast.
and stay tuned for the documentary that will be released sometime next spring or summer. we just started it a week ago.

Great story about little known men

Seems to me a story of Americas injustice system. Because Tim was under coercion and control much of the time during his short fighting career. When he finally snapped he was both trying to kill himself and then remorseful. He has done more than two decades in prison and is living a life based on love I am so glad he has found peace in his heart and is physically healthy even though he is still in prison. It is a story that should be told thank you to the author.

Well researched, poorly delivered (2.5 stars)

This was a mixed bag for me.
It’s a tragic story and as with most true crime podcast/documentaries presented nowadays, has a fair amount of ambiguity. It also seems very well researched.
In my opinion, the parts that fall short are the narrator, (seemingly lacking much affect) and the way the chronology of events and everyone involved is presented in an overly complicated way. It shifts the focus from exploring the underlying issues, to working out who and why they’re being interviewed. Maybe there was too much material and they struggled to cut it down whilst maintaining cohesion?
Considering this is such a weighty case, I’m wondering why it was so diluted in this podcast; it seems to echo the treatment inflicted by the court process.

A Cut Above

Another very sad tale of the murky world of small time boxing, but far better told than most.

David you don't normally annoy me

New Zealanders don't roll their "r's" David. You know it, your fellow Kiwis know it. Why are you doing that? What's wrong with your accent the way it normally is? It ruined a well written and prepared story.
