SUPPORT SF 8....COURT SEPT 17...9AM....850 BRYANT
There will be a brief hearing for Francisco
Torres on Friday, September 17 at 9am at 850 Bryant St.
Atty
Gen. Jerry Brown and the state of California have spent more than 2 million
dollars to prosecute this 39 year old case based on torture. Over
the past four years, broad and powerful support for the SF 8 has resulted in
charges being totally dropped for Ray Boudreaux, Richard Brown, Richard O'Neal,
Hank Jones and Harold Taylor. Jalil Muntaqim and Herman Bell
received no additional time to their sentences.
But the government has
refused to end this case, clinging to the prosecution of Cisco Torres, who
consistently maintains his innocence.
As the last chapter of this case
drags on, the government is counting on our diminished support, so that they can
proceed with a cloak of invisibility. We cannot let this happen.
The hearing on September 17th will be brief, but it is critical to come
to court and to demonstrate that our support for the SF 8 continues, that
we are still here, and that we demand that the last charges be dropped against
Cisco Torres.
