Please help NOW! Letters Desperately Needed For Jeremy Hammond's Sentencing by 10/15 The time

10-14-2013 • http://jayleiderman.blogspot.com/2013/10/letters-d

"You don't have to know Jeremy to help, you just have to care" ~ Jeremy's friend Grace said that at the #FreeHammond/#FreeBB fundraiser in NY in August. It is doubtless true. Jeremy Hammond is a prisoner pending sentencing for computer hacking crimes. His crimes were acts of civil disobedience, acts of protest against an encroaching surveillance state. He is part of a new breed of electronic dissident, a list populated by such pop heroes as Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning, Barrett Brown, Julian Assange and the PayPal14. Jeremy faces a maximum of 10 years under the plea agreement he signed. The government will want the full 10 years. Will you please help us ask the judge for less time?
