Make this good deed go unpunished

Three years ago, one of the best punks i've ever met in my life was down on his luck and living in a car. At that time, he met a family in a similar boat with a child they could not feed. In a very Robin Hood type move, he may or may not have taken an item worth less than $70 from one of the greediest, wealthiest families on Earth (the Waltons) who have more money than they could use in several life times and yet pay their own employees so little that they ask shoppers to donate canned goods to feed them near the holiday. With that less than $70, he was able to purchase some food for the family (and his own stomach too). Three years later, with his life turned around, the Walmart and the state of Alabama have come back to bite him on the ass and are trying to lock him up in a for-profit privatized prison for 18 months. over seventy fucking dollars. He needs $4000 now to hire a defense lawyer who will actually work to make sure he sees no prison time (the court appointed attorney has done and said he can and will do fuck all for him).
Keith would never ask for this money himself, but know he can't stop me from asking on his behalf because I truly believe he deserves this break. Lets help him. 
Now is a real chance to take your punk ethics and fuck the system on behalf of a brother who would go down fucking it for you.
