Update on Carlos Alberto Torres, Puerto Rican Political Prisoner Parole Hearing

Message from Carlos Alberto Torres/Mensaje de Carlos Alberto Torres

Greetings:
As many of you know, I was supposed to meet with the Parole Board on Thursday January 22nd, 2009. After evaluating this period of time and various unexpected things, I have decided to postpone the parole hearing for a few months. The Parole Board has agreed to the postponement and will hear my case in either April or May. I am fine and am optimistic that the process is going well. I am confident this is the right decision.

Saludos:
Como es de su conocimiento tenia pautado para este jueves 22 de enero de 2009 la audiencia frente a la Comision de Libertad Bajo Palabra (Parole Board). Luego de evaluar el momento y varios imprevistos he determinado aplazar la vista frente al Parole por unos meses. La comision ya a aceptado posponer la vista y estar viendo mi caso en audiencia entre abril y mayo de 2009. Me encuentro bien y optimista ya que el proceso esta fluyendo adecuadamente. Est oy confiado en que esta desicion es la mas prudente.
