From an email exchange:

I went to see Julian today at Rikers,  it is a pain in the ass to get to him,  but it was worth it. I’ve spoken with him on the phone a few times and had numerous emails,  but that was the first time I met him !!!!! He talked about what happened and his history of Arrests and how he has NO fear !!!!!!!!!  In fact he likes it there he has three meals a nice bed 24hr protection which he said he could NOT afford where he lives in NJ !!!!! The Hour went very fast and he gave me his wife Susans phone number to call, which I did when I got home about 6pm.  He asked me to stand in for him in Allentown, PA if I can make it . I’ll try my best to do that !!!!

When I asked if it was alright to post his email he said:

Go right ahead, I’m sure others would like to know he is in Good spirits, in fact, he told me a Jewish joke I never heard before and I told him a Jewish joke he never heard before about circumcision, which is NOT usually a laughing matter -:)

Please consider sending Julian a letter to show your support.
