DESCRIPTION:SUPPORT THE doe FAMILY  Sunshine Taskforce Compliance Hearing  APRIL 13, 
 2005 4pm SF City Hall, Rm 406  Open for public comment  TAKE ACTION!!!  
 CALL-IN to SF Sheriff Michael Hennessey APRIL 11th, 12th, 13th  
 415.554.7225 sheriff@sfgov.org  DEMAND! :  *Access to public records  
 *Compliance with Sunshine Taskforce’s order of determination  *Video and 
 other documents regarding the Jane John doe cell extraction   (June 9th 
 2004)  This information is crucial for building our case!  The Story:  On 
 June 8th 2004 at the end of the Reclaim the Commons biotech protest, over 
 one hundred activists were corralled in a mass arrest during a Reclaim the 
 Streets against the G8 meeting in Georgia. Thirty-Eight of the activists 
 arrested chose to withhold their names in continuing protest against their 
 illegal arrest and violation of their First Amendment rights, amongst other 
 things. The sheriff’s department attempted to break their solidarity by 
 violently extracting them from their cells and subjecting them to pain 
 compliance which resulted in serious injuries ranging from broken bones, 
 nerve damage, and torn ligaments to bruises and psychological trauma. Their 
 charges were ultimately dismissed “in the interest of justice.”  The 
 Struggle:  The activists and their legal counsel have met deadlock in the 
 information discovery process. The sheriff’s department refuses to 
 disclose pertinent documents and video that are crucial in building a case. 
 Although a sparse number of documents have been revealed, the sheriff 
 maintains that the video and other documents requested are not public 
 information. Even after a Sunshine Taskforce hearing unanimously found the 
 sheriff in violation of the Sunshine Ordinance, which is meant to insure 
 transparent government, the sheriff refuses to release pertinent video and 
 documents.  We need your support!  Please send your much needed donations 
 to our defense fund:    doe family fund   PO BOX 40908   San Francisco, CA 
 94140  doefamily@resist.ca   Our lawyers need to eat and pay rent, and we 
 must raise $12,000 for them and our case.    \n
