DESCRIPTION:email received on 12/14\n\nFriends,\n\nI learned late yesterday that AG 
 David Druliner has requested that Harold's bail be increased to $7million 
 or that he be held without bail. Druliner's stated reason for the request 
 is Harold's arrest last week in Florida for "attempted purchase of 
 cocaine." A hearing on the bail request has been scheduled for Thursday, 
 December 20th @ 10:30 am in Department 23 at 850 Bryant Street.\n\nIt is 
 extremely important that people come to court on the 20th. Judge Moscone 
 needs to know that the community is firmly behind Harold.\n\nIt is clear 
 from the arrest and all the surrounding circumstances that the charge 
 against Harold in Florida is totally baseless. A thorough search of his 
 person and his van resulted in NO seizure of any substances, legal or 
 illegal. Further, NO allegation is even made that any money was produced. 
 Harold was swept up in a sting operation in which numerous individuals were 
 arrested. All except Harold were alleged to have actually made a purchase. 
 None of them were with him when he was arrested. He has NO drug history!! 
 In short, Harold was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He had gone to 
 this neighborhood to thank some of the people that had written letters of 
 support for him when he was seeking release on bail in San 
 Francisco.\n\nNews of his arrest spread quickly and he was bailed out 
 shortly after he appeared in a Florida court.\n\nJust days earlier he had 
 appeared on "Democracy Now" with host Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez, and 
 attended a press conference held by the World Council of Churches at 
 Riverside Church announcing international support for the SF8 launched by 
 Archbishop Desmond Tutu and other Nobel Laureates.\n\nHarold has made all 
 of his court appearances and has every intention of fighting the charges in 
 San Francisco and Florida. In light of the torture he suffered in New 
 Orleans in 1973, his strength and character in the face of this latest 
 ordeal are amazing. The stress this has caused for him and his family is 
 overwhelming.\n\nLetters in support of Harold and asking Judge Moscone not 
 to change his bail status should be sent to his attorney, Randy Montesano 
 by fax no later than Wednesday, December 19th.\n \nRandy Montesano, 
 Esq.\n214 Duboce Avenue\nSan Francisco, 94103\n\nFax No. 415-255-8631\n\n
