How was he not protected under whistleblower laws?
Is there a way to write him a letter? Idk how your prison system works, but this dude needs some encouragement for what he did.
Is there a way to write him a letter?
Theoretically, yes, that should be a big old 1st amendment free speech right, but since this is a legal right for a poor person expect it to be a big pain to exercise
Anyway, all the instructions should be on this page here

However each of those methods is going to require getting a match on the inmate locator, and since I don't think he is actually incarcerated yet there aren't any matching results (and it will probably take some time after he's been incarcerated for his record to start showing up)
I also found what looks like a GoFundMe page for him, which might be a way to get in contact with his family and friends, which might be a better way of contacting him (among other things, the prison email system only allows inmates to send messages to approved contacts and they're limited to 30 of those, so sending everything to someone with regular email who could be one of those contacts and just forward things along might work best) - https://web.archive.org/save/https://www.gofundme.com/f/charles-littlejohns-legal-defense-fund
I should add I haven't verified that GoFundMe is legitimate, but it looks like it is
Can you imagine the storm in truth social if Biden pardoned this guy lmao, cmon Biden!
I don't know if this sort of thing is allowed, but if outsiders can donate money to his prison commissary account, I will definitely donate.

And Biden won't pardon him.
But he's gonna lock down the border and bypass congress to ship weapons to Israel.
Trump and his base already conflate his many court cases catching up to him as the DOJ sent to stop a political rival. If Biden just pardoned the person who “stole” Trumps taxes, we’d hear about it nonstop til November.
Don’t do something because it might piss of the Republicans is not gonna cut it as an excuse.
And as we have all seen, they will straight up invent a reason to complain nonstop until November if they don’t have a real one.

Let's hope he didn't sleep under any bridges, too. That would be what they call a repeat offender.
Exposing a convicted criminal is a crime against the US and its legal foundation? GTFOH.
On the other hand, maybe said “legal foundation” is said to protect those with money and influence and punish those who dare to move beyond the systemic injustices present. Maybe this judge was correct after all.

You'd have thought he was Russian opposition and he had revealed something about Putin!
