PP Jonathan Paul Reports to Prison October 31st

From: Friends of Jonathan Paul <friendsofjonathanpaul@yahoo.com>

As many of you may already know, Jonathan will be
reporting to prison on October 31st to begin his 51
month sentence. The past two years have been very
challenging for Jonathan and his family. After
waiting for many months, the BOP has finally
designated Jonathan to a prison. Jonathan is one of
only three defendants in this case that did not
receive the terrorism enhancement at sentencing, yet
he was designated to a medium security facility when
some of those who did receive the enhancement were
designated to low security. I guess it is a great
leap to assume that there would be some method to the
madness of the BOP. That said, Jonathan is ready to
begin serving his sentence and to move on to the next
chapter. The letters that prisoners receive are their
lifeline. Please remember Jonathan and his sacrifices
and write to him often. Please also remember his
co-defendants Daniel McGowan, Nathan Block and Joyanna
Zacher as well as the SHAC defendants (see addresses
below).

Beginning of October 31st, you can write to Jonathan
at the following address:

Jonathan Paul
#07167-085
FCI Phoenix
Federal Correctional Institution
37910 N 45th Ave.
Phoenix, AZ 85086

We plan to get a support website up for Jonathan very
soon.

Here are some guidelines for writing: (We've taken
this from Daniel's support website - thanks to
Daniel's support group for these comprehensive
guidelines)

When sending a letter, it's best to keep it simple.
Write or type on blank notebook or copy paper no
bigger than 8.5x11 and don't use any special colored
or gel pens or pencils, stamps, or stickers. Don't
write anything on the outside or inside of the
envelope except the prisoner's address and your full
name and return address in the upper left hand corner
of the addressed side of the envelope. Use plain white
envelopes without a clear plastic address window, or
any special decorations. Most prisons also REQUIRE a
return address on the envelope.

Please take a minute to read the following VERY
IMPORTANT guidelines.
- Write on both sides of the paper, since the number
of pages he can have may be limited. It is also
totally acceptable to type your letters. More will fit
on a page.
- Write your address inside your letter/card if you
think he does not have it, but DO NOT put an address
label anywhere inside or on the letter/card. Address
labels are ONLY OK to go on your envelope.
- Do NOT send him stamps, envelopes (self-addressed or
otherwise), blank paper or notecards. He will not be
able to receive them and he will be denied your
letter.
- Do NOT send him any form of currency, whether cash,
check or money order.
- Do NOT send photographs larger than 4x6. Do not send
polaroids and make sure the content is appropriate.
- Do NOT include any paperclips, staples or any extra
things in your letter.
- Do NOT send a card that has glitter or any 3-D
objects in or on it.
- Do NOT send cards with paper inserts glued in them.
- Do NOT tape your envelope shut.
- Do NOT ever write "legal mail" or anything implying
that you are an attorney unless you are
- Please use your common sense; don't write about
anything that is likely to get a prisoner in trouble
in any way.

Jonathan will not receive the envelope your letter is
mailed in, so write your return address and full name
in the letter as well. Also, number the pages like
"1/5, 2/5,3/5..." so that a prisoner can tell if some
pages are missing.

If you send Jonathan a letter and it gets returned to
you, please let us know about it so we can add any
other restrictions to the guideline list.

Please do NOT send in any books to Jonathan yet. We
are in the process of getting a system going for him
to receive books.
