[Freethe SF8] Reminder - tomorrow (Wednesday) SF8 Herman & Jalil Need Your Help

[SF-8 case]

Dear friends,

We are asking that you phone and fax CA 
Governor  Schwarzenneger on Wednesday, November 
19th demanding that California return Herman Bell 
and Jalil Muntaqin (Anthony Bottom) to New York 
state for their parole hearings. Please also send 
us an email when you have done so at 
<mailto:FreetheSF8 at riseup.net>FreetheSF8 at riseup.net

In order for this to be a success, we need you to 
help spread the word and take a few minutes to 
make the call and send the fax. Please send as 
many individual faxes as possible.  We want to flood his office!

You can print out and use the attached letter to 
fax and/or use the phone script below, all to the Governor's office.

FAX:

Dear Governor Schwarzenegger,

Mr. Bell and Mr. Bottom have been languishing in 
the San Francisco County Jail for over two years, 
while their case - the San Francisco 8- has no trial date in sight.

The San Francisco County Jail does not have the 
proper facilities or capacity to hold people for 
an extended period of time, and two years in 
sub-standard living conditions, woefully limited 
visits and little to no access to proper medical 
care or activities has had devastating effects on 
Mr. Bell and Mr. Bottom and their families.

Both of these men have been incarcerated for over 
35 years and are model prisoners.  Their return 
to New York State is essential in order for them 
to be present for crucial parole hearings.  It is 
unfair and cruel to deny them this right.

California State prosecutors and the judge have 
already agreed to transfer Mr. Bell and Mr. 
Bottom.  I urge you, Governor Schwarzenegger to 
follow through and implement this 
agreement.  Stop reneging and do what's right!  Transfer them now!


Sincerely,

I call upon you to immediately transfer Herman 
Bell and Anthony Bottom (aka Jalil Muntaqim),

Bottom have been languishing in the San Francisco 
County Jail for over two years, while their case 
–the San Francisco 8- has no trial date in sight. 
The San Francisco County Jail is not meant to

two years in sub-standard living conditions has 
had devastating effects on Mr. Bell and Mr. Bottom and their families.

already agreed to transfer Mr. Bell and Mr. 
Bottom.  I urge you, Governor Schwarzenegger to 
follow through and implement this 
agreement.  Stop reneging and do what's right!  Transfer them now!
