do you happen to know the lawyer who represented Jock Palfreeman by any chance? i wish i'd got him when i was in the can. i did end up hiring him to resolve a standing block against me leaving bulgaria. he sat in the court for an hour leafing through my case file and 3 days later called me and told me (as i sat in a little hotel nearby the border with romania) that i was clear. hah. then i walked across the EU commission funded bridge, some rando romanian guard asked to see my passport and then directed me to jump the fence far before the road checkpoint on the other side further up the road. haha. they probably wouldn't have stopped me anyway, he didn't call anyone to check on me.
