June 2nd: Carol Fisher sentenced to 60 days in jail and 2 years probation

Posted on June 7, 2006

The latest, 6/7/06:

I spoke to Carol Fisher on the phone from the Cuyahoga County Jail this
morning, and here are a few things you might want to know:

1. Carol is doing well and would love to hear from you. To send her a letter, please write to:
Carol Fisher
Prisoner # SO0257713
1215 W. 3rd St.
Cleveland OH 44113

2. Carol had prescriptions for various medications when she entered jail. She has not yet recieved any of them. You can call the jail to demand her prescriptions be filed at 216-443-6000

3. Yesterday, Carol was reading aloud to another inmate from a book
that she took into jail with her. “From Ike to Mao and Beyond: My
Journey from Mainstream America to Revolutionary Communist,” A Memoir
by Bob Avakian. As the reading was going on, the other inmate leaned
against Carol’s arm as she was intently listening to the story. A
corrections officer then reported this as an “incident” (prisoners are
not allowed to TOUCH each other), and they were threatened with
lockdown!

4. An appeal of her conviction has been filed, and we are awaiting the outcome of this.

 

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

*Donate to Carol’s legal defense.  It costs a lot of money to get transcripts,
file appeals, etc.  Make checks payable
to ‘Carol Fisher Defense Fund’ and mail to ‘NION/WCW PO Box 609034 Cleveland,
OH 44109.

*Call Judge Timothy McGinty and express your outrage:
216-443-8758

*Get your legal organization to be part of Carol’s defense:
make statements, file friend of the court briefs, etc.

*Have your church group, school group, organization or club
join this battle by sending statements of support, donating funds, etc.

*Put this poster up to show public support and spread the word. 

*Request radio stations play any of the following songs,
dedicate it to Carol Fisher and explain what is going on with her case:
Tom Petty’s ‘Won’t Back Down’
Pearl Jam’s ‘World Wide Suicide’
Pink’s ‘Dear Mr President’
Neil Young’s ‘Let’s Impeach the President’
