[Ppnews] Support Hugo Pinell - 42 years in Prison

[Political Prisoner News]

http://www.hugopinell.org/index.htm
Hugo Pinell has been in prison for 42 years - 35 years in solitary 
confinement - he spent 16 years in the Security Housing Unit - but 
hasn't been written up for an infraction in over 24 years.

Hugo is scheduled to go before the Parole Board on July 10th 2006. 
Please write letters to the Board of Prison Terms to encourage them 
to grant Hugo parole. You may mail your letters to Gordon Kaupp, 
Attorney at Law, who will be representing Hugo at the parole hearing. 
See below for details.

Please tell as many people as you can to write letters to the Parole 
Board. All letters should include specific offers of help and/or 
support for Hugo to re-enter society. The Parole Board commissioners 
are interested in the following offers:

    * job training
    * offers of employment including temporary work
    * assistance in writing a resume
    * help networking and job searching
    * a temporary or a permanent place to live, preferably in San 
Francisco or the Bay Area
    * monetary support (he'll be released after 42 years with $200 gate money)
In addition, describe other ways you can support Hugo's transition 
back into society after spending over 42 years in prison, 34 in 
solitary confinement. Please mention your relationship to Hugo, what 
impact he has made on your life, how long you have known him or about 
him, and any other positive comments you might have. For those of you 
with job offers, please be aware that Hugo is fluent in English and 
Spanish, which should be a feather in his cap in regard to 
employment. Also, Hugo is very personable, intelligent and athletic 
and is in tip top physical condition. Highly disciplined, Hugo is a 
vegetarian and continues to work out regularly. He would be an 
excellent mentor for at-risk youth.
