Support the SF8

Come to court:
Thurs, Feb. 7
9:30 a.m. hearing
850 Bryant St, SF
Department 23, 3rd floor

On Thursday, February 7th arguments will be made to drop the remaining conspiracy charges against Herman Bell, Jalil Muntaqim (Anthony Bottom) and Francisco Torres. The prosecution claims that because the three men were not in California the statute of limitations does not apply. This “ridiculous technicality” will be vigorously challenged by defense attorneys as Herman and Jalil have been political prisoners for 34 and 36 years and Francisco was residing in New York. All three have been consistently available to California state prosecutors.

i hope the charges are dropped and this stupid case goes away. unfortunately, i know what it's like when the government targets a political minority and wish the defendants the best at the next court hearing.

and i love the new look of your blog, nadia! so much easier on this old queer's eyes.

plus the images really add punch to your messages of political action.

tell all your friends you're now a proud political blogger. welcome to the club, sister!

much love, michael
