Joran van der Sloot is continuing to try and garner more funds in his desperate bid to avoid the 28 year sentence that was handed down to him on January 13, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

The convicted killer, who confessed to the May 2010 murder of Stephany Flores, is still asking his "guardian angel," Mary Hamer, for money despite her announcing on Sunday that she was no longer going to support him.

A source exclusively told RadarOnline.com that the 24-year-old Dutchman has been manipulating Hamer to give him more money to pay lawyer fees and pay off prison staff.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Hamer decided to hang up her angel wings and stop supporting Joran after sinking up to $100,000 into his legal campaign.

After announcing her resignation as the role of Joran van der Sloot’s “spiritual and civil rights advocate,” Mary Hamer has moved on to another man in need, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

The Dutch killer’s guardian angel’s newest mercy mission is Amir Hekmati, the Iranian-American who was sentenced to death earlier this year on charges that he was allegedly a CIA spy.

Hamer, a radiologist from Lake City, Florida, wrote a letter on Sunday to the Iranian government begging for him to be set free, and RadarOnline.com has exclusively received the mail that she sent to the highest powers.

Iranian-American Amir Hekmati has been in prison in Iran since August 2011 but it has only been since Monday, when he was sentenced to death, that the world heard of his plight.

That five-month silence could affect whether the 28-year-old from Flint, Michigan lives or dies, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

"His family is trying to understand the situation, but they made a huge mistake not to publicize the case at the time of his arrest," Iranian journalist Omid Memarian told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview. "If they had, this would not have happened at all."

Currently locked in a prison cell in Tehran after being sentenced to death, Iranian-American Amir Hekmati is an unfortunate victim of the increased tensions between Iran and the U.S., a Middle Eastern expert at Amnesty International exclusively told RadarOnline.com.

"His treatment falls into a very known pattern of people who are trotted out and accused of espionage," Elise Auerbach, Iran Country Specialist of Amnesty International USA told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.

However, it is the severity of the sentence that is unusual and is shocking to the human rights group.
