Lynne Stewart Update!

-- URGENT UPDATE ON LYNNE STEWART from Ralph Poynter:

Greetings It is official. Lynne Stewart, our shero and people's
lawyer is at this very moment in transit to the Oklahoma prison
complex which is a transit point for the prison system.

We still have no confirmation as to where they will send her.

They may keep her there for two weeks until this is determined.

Clearly, the request of friends and family that she be allowed to
remain at mcc until that time, has been deliberately disregarded.

Clearly the efforts of the police state to break and abuse her spirit
is evident, in that she could have just as easily been allowed to
remain close to her love ones for the holidays, instead of being
handcuffed and shackled to the floor of a prison transport plane to
Oklahoma transit prison. This is business as usual policy for the
U.S. Prison system and we hope, against all hope, that Lynne was not
shackled in this manner.

Continue to write, write, write. Her letters will follow her and when
she arrives at her destination i.e. assigned place of imprisonment,
she will need them as much as we will appreciate them.

Thank you much.
Ralph Poynter
