History/herstory will surely absolve Lynne but will certainly damn
her oppressors. I just got this message and am forwarding it as I received it.

Just minutes ago Ralph Poynter (Lynne Stewart's husband and close
political comrade) phoned me from New York City and told me that
Lynne (who is 70 years of age) has reported to prison, after, in an
outrageous and unprecedented move, she was informed that today's
original understanding that she would be allowed 7 to 10 days before
reporting to prison, while the judge considered her lawyers legal
request that she be allowed to stay out of prison at least until her
scheduled December 7, 2009 surgery, has been reversed. Obviously,
this is meant to intimidate and instill fear into the people in
general, and politically conscious defense lawyers in particular.
THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS AND WE SHOULD ALL BE INCENSED!
The struggle continues and must be intensified.

THURS 4:30 again for People's Lawyer Lynne Stewart!
Lynne has spent her entire career defending the poor and oppressed.
She is 70 years old and has had recent bouts with breast cancer.
Come Support Lynne Stewart!!
Lynne Stewart called with this latest update:
She has just been notified by Judge Koeltl to surrender tomorrow, to
begin serving her sentence.
She is to turn herself in at the Federal Court Building, the entrance
is at Worth and Baxter.
This is the back side of the Federal court building at 500 Pearl
St..- a block from Foley Square. Map with subway stops
On Tues and Wed as this shocking news of 2nd Circuit decision that
Lynne's bail be revoked and she be taken into custody many, many
people came to Foley Square to stand with Lynne,
Lynne's lawyers will try to appeal this surrender order tomorrow. But
now this is the official order.
