Hi all,

After spending over a week in Terre Haute, Daniel is now at FCI Oxford in Wisconsin.
We're not sure how long he'll be here but it may be another week. Please write to
Daniel!

DANIEL McGOWAN
#63794-053
FCI OXFORD
FEDERAL CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION
P.O. BOX 1000
OXFORD, WI 53952

Also, please understand that he has had limited access to pens, paper, and stamps
along the way. He has told me to let everyone know that he really, REALLY
appreciates all the mail he's been getting and he's sorry he hasn't been able to
respond to most people yet.

Hopefully once he reaches Sandstone and settles in he'll start getting back to
everyone. But, again, letters mean the world to someone in prison. Please keep
writing!

Thanks!

Daniel McGowan is an environmental and social justice activist. He was charged in
federal court on many counts of arson, property destruction and conspiracy, all
relating to two incidents in Oregon in 2001. Until recently, Daniel was offered two
choices by the government: cooperate by informing on other people, or go to trial
and face life in prison. His only real option was to plead not guilty until he
could reach a resolution of the case that permitted him to honor his principles. As
a result of months of litigation and negotiation, Daniel was able to admit to his
role in these two incidents, while not implicating or identifying any other people
who might have been involved. He was sentenced to 7 years in prison on June 4, 2007
and began serving his time on July 2, 2007.
