F 16 protester Jack Bay still in jail
Jack Bay still being held from anti-war february 16 protest
visited jack today. it's the first of march and still he hasn't a clue who his lawyer is. i've contacted the national lawyers guild and midnight special law collective. it was my original intention that i not be released until bay has been released. i appreciate the acts of my friends and supporters but the fact is that as it stands the solidarity we had has been dissolved and i fear for jack's safety. when i was in f pod i and another inmate protester witnessed the 5 of the deputy sheriffs assaulting jack. they were throwing him against a wall and i heard jack scream. one of the deputys involved in this i wrote down and will post later as soon as i find the scrap of paper i scribbled it down on. jack was later sent to the psych ward at san francisco general. this is the sort of shit that goes down in deputy greg suhr's regime and im glad to see that his ass got indicited. he was the supposed author of a prison rule book that i got to read when i was shipped to b pod. nothing is more frightening than being the target of deputy terrorism inside with no support. its my belief that someone from homeland security will try to get jack to make up something in the trials to come in return for lessening his other charges. when the one of the other protest inmates was being taken to their arraignment, he reported that a deputy remarked, 'so you're a fuckin' terrorist? we'll show you what we do with terrorists'. i urge everyone to support bay's release as much as they did mine. the public can't be lulled to believing that we are completely out of this particular predicament. the good news is that bay is no longer being held in the higher security tier of the panopticon bay pod and has been moved to the lower level where inmates are allowed to freely visit with each other. But the chaos that is presently going on in the San Francisco political and law enforcement milieu is sufficient to warrant increased vigilence on this for jack's safety.
