Our dear friends, Cecily McMillan is going to trial and we need all y’all occupiers to show up and support!
You are needed to come out full force and show the court system that we stand with our friends and that we will bring #Justice4Cecily.
Join us at 9:15 am at 100 Centre Street, Room 1116 Part 41, New York, NY 10013
There will be breakfast and hot tea in the morning on Monday outside the courthouse for supporters!
Did you know?
“Officer Bovell has been accused of running a motorcyclist off the road to make an arrest, kicking a suspect in the face while he was on the ground, and slamming an arrestee’s face into the stairs on an MTA bus. Bovell was also one of the 500 officers ensnared in the vast ticket-fixing scandal in the Bronx, and was again internally disciplined for his role.” – Cop’s Record Of Excessive Force Allegations Will Be Sealed For OWS Trial, Gothamist
Do this: “Tell everyone you know about Officer Bovell’s history of abuse.” Tweet it. Sing it. Facebook it. Bring it on a sign. Let’s get the truth out there.
You are needed. RSVP now.
Directions
The best thing that you can do is come to the courthouse to bear witness to the egregious treatment of Cecily by the “justice” system, and to let them know that we won’t stand for it. The trial starts tomorrow and will likely continue for the next week or two. Court starts at 9:30 am each day, except for Thursday, when our judge will be unavailable, at 100 Centre St, Part 41 (room 1116). Please wear business casual as our appearance can affect the jury!
We aren’t entirely sure how quickly or slowly things will move, but here’s a tentative schedule of events – we’ll update as we can:
April 7th – Jury Selection
April 8th – Opening Arguments
April 9th – Prosecution Case
April 11th – Defence Case
April 14th – Closing Arguments
April 15th – Jury Deliberation
Members of the Justice For Cecily Support Team will be around to answer any questions. Stay tuned into http://justiceforcecily.com/

After Cecily’s case is thrown out of court, please organize to attend Op. American Spring in Washington DC on May 16. We’ve had enough.
These are the official American Spring websites, please have a look:

http://patriotsforamerica.ning.com/
These sites have the coordinators idea of what to accomplish and how. Peacefully, unarmed and as long as it takes. There are no leaders, there are Americans from all walks of life and political beliefs. Millions of Americans to demand resignations, a return to Constitutional law, and end to sadistic police.
