UPDATE - Cincinnati Greenscare

** UPDATE **

We have confirmed Marie is being held in the Butler County jail
(southwestern Ohio) pending transfer to Michigan. She is being held on
suicide watch which we believe is just another tactic of the state to
break her down and further isolate her from friends and family.

Federal agents are contacting people on Marie's cell phone list claiming
they are contacting folks on Marie's behalf to pass along information. We
want everyone to know this is bullshit. We were able to briefly speak with
Marie, who despite the current situation is in good spirits. Marie is not
asking the state to contact anyone on her behalf. Realize if you know/knew
Marie your contact information was likely seized when they raided her
house. Understand these are old-school COINTELPRO style tactics that have
been historically used to disrupt and confuse support networks and
activist circles. Stay focused, stay safe, and don't talk to law
enforcement no matter how innocent it may seem.

At this time there's a lot we don't know. Please understand speculation,
rumors, and hearsay help no one. We will be forthcoming with confirmed
information on Marie's current situation as it becomes available.

Friends are in the process of establishing a support network for Marie and
raising funds for any potential legal costs. To get in contact with
Marie's support crew email b4pcrew@riseup.net. More Information will be
posted as it becomes available.
