Journalist Faces Jail Time for Resisting Grand Jury Subpoena

Contempt Hearing and Press Conference Thursday

Where: Federal Building; 450 Golden Gate Ave. San Francisco
When: July 20th 2006

12:00 PM Press Conference
1:00 PM Civil Contempt Hearing

Josh Wolf is being charged with civil contempt and may be jailed Thursday for refusing to testify or turn over video out takes to a Federal Grand Jury investigating a July, 2005, demonstration. We have fought to make this next
hearing public, so come out and pack the courtroom. This is one of several grand juries being convened across the country to harass, intimidate and collect
information on political activists and their supporters.

Josh faces more than a year in Santa Rita Jail for simply exercising his constitutional right to remain silent, while standing up for freedom of the press. Please spread the word and attend Josh's hearing and press conference. Let's have a strong show of solidarity and support for Josh on Thursday!
