Journalist Faces Jail Time for Resisting Grand Jury
Subpoena Contempt
Hearing Tuesday August 1

Where: Federal Building; 450 Golden Gate Ave.
San Francisco
When: August 1, 2006

9:00 AM Civil Contempt Hearing

Josh Wolf's civil contempt hearing was continued until
Tuesday August 1st. He still faces over a year in jail
for refusing to testify or turn over video out takes to a
Federal Grand Jury investigating a July, 2005, anti-G8 demonstration.
At Josh's last hearing over 30 supporters, family and press filled
the courtroom. Judge Alsup (in contrast to his last performance)
was less abrasive and we feel this is due to the large turn out
in the courtroom. This is why we are continuing our call for
supporters to attend his upcoming hearings.

Josh faces more than a year in Santa Rita Jail for simply ]
exercising his constitutional right to remain silent, while standing
up for freedom of the press. This is one of several grand juries
being convened across the country to harass, intimidate and collect
information on political activists and their supporters.Please spread
the word and attend Josh's hearing. Let's have another show of solidarity
and support for Josh!
