Marie Mason was arrested and charged with ELF activities in Michigan dating back almost a decade. As many of you already know Marie has since been released on an unsecured bond and has been under house arrest for over a month now awaiting trial. Marie’s attorney petitioned the court to serve her house arrest in her own community of Cincinnati, OH, where her young daughter, close friends, animal companions, and support crew are located. The court denied her request citing she “did not have sufficient property interests in Cincinnati”. She is required to serve her house arrest in the western district of Michigan.

While house arrest is no where near as bad as incarceration it still has its own bag of stresses and hardships. We are encouraging folks to continue to send Marie letters of support. House arrest does not have any silly jail rules like what type of ink or paper you use so get creative. Letters, Photos, Art, videos, collages, vegan baked goods and vegan recipes are all welcome. Email letters of support are also welcome and can be sent to freemarie@riseup.net and will be forwarded to Marie.

We want to be clear though Marie’s needs and isolation in this respect are not as pressing as some of the other Green Scare prisoners who are currently incarcerated. If you are only going to write just one letter we
at Got Your back encourage you to send it to one of the following below.  Tre has been locked up almost four years awaiting trial, Both Briana and Eric are locked down awaiting sentencing and Sadie and Exile are serving 7+ years for Green Scare related actions.

Briana Waters – www.supportbriana.org
Eric McDavid – www.supporteric.org
Sadie and Exile – solidaritywithsadieandexile@gmail.com

If you or your collective would like to support Marie in the above mentioned way please send all letters/care packages to her support crews address below and we will forward it on to Marie.

Love and Rage,
