Hi! Everyone, FYI
The New York 42 goes to trial on June 3rd 2002 Monday, June 3, 2002 9:30 a.m. courthouse - 100 Center Street -Room 535 -Part 1 Judge Robert Stoltz 42 protesters, standing in front of the United Nations holding a large banner, demanding the end to the bombing of Vieques, PR, will be put on trial in the largest political trial in the history of NYC. On May 15, 2001 I was among the first group of arrestees who were arrested for demonstrating our outrage at the continued bombing of the tiny island of Veiques in Puerto Rico by the U.S. Navy. We are accused of disrupting the foot traffic in front of the United Nations. The charge, disorderly conduct, is a violation, equal to a traffic ticket, for which we have already spent more than 36 hours in jail and are now going to trial. If we are convicted, the sentence will be 15 days in jail and a $560 fine. The fine for the NJ State Troopers who fired into the van full of African American and Latino students (4) on the NJ Turnpike, was only $280. We are hoping to have as many friends, supporters, and family members as possible in the courtroom to witness this trial. Please try to attend the 1st day of the trial.

Or call Cleo at (212) 234-2068 or (646) 261-0193 Fuera Marina - Vieques Si! Marina No! Peace & Love, Cleo ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
