Firstly, I am sorry to hear what is happening. Generally, unless you were prompted by the court or are a victim or supporting family member, writing a letter to the judge is generally not a good idea. If you can clarify your situation, I can expand upon my response.
During sentencing, a judge will typically only allow a certain number of live witnesses to testify as to a defendants character but will accept almost any number of letters. Of course, a character letter is only effective if it is well-written and helps the judge understand a fuller picture of the defendant.
What should be included in a character letter? Every word needs to be true. Include a description of how you know the person in question and how long youve known them. Talk about any positive traits youve seen this person demonstrate, and include (true) anecdotes that demonstrate these qualities.
Be sure to include how long you have known the person. Mention what capacity you have known them in. Include an example of their positive character traits. Explain why you believe they would be a good fit for the job (include measurable metrics and outcomes if you can!)
I have always found [applicant] to be trustworthy, hard working and intelligent. When we worked on [example], [applicant] showed good communication skills and I could rely on them to take the initiative and to stay calm under pressure. For these reasons, I believe [applicant] would be ideal for the job of [role].

A character letter can help you: Receive a more lenient sentence. Convince a judge to offer deferred adjudication, which gives you a chance to avoid a conviction if you meet certain conditions. If you satisfy the required conditions, you will not have a conviction.
Judges hate a situation where you say something using by the way. It suggests that you are bringing up a point you only thought about at the dying minutes and you are tossing it in, in a bid to have some significance. You are trying to show the judge that the point you are making is important.
The goal of a character letter is to cast the defendant in the most favorable light possible. A character letter to a judge should establish your credibility, paint a full picture of the defendant and be respectful, among other things.
