The Prairieland Defendants have been confined now for nearly 4 months, battling both state and federal Charges. Many have been moved far from their homes, having had their lives upended due to the government’s war against “antifa”, and a fearmongering of anyone who holds dissenting beliefs.
Their bonds are still set at millions of dollars, and as said on their site,
“The framing of the case by the federal government should worry all of us. The glaring inconsistencies in the official narrative and the alarmist accusations are a clear attempt to bolster the Trump administration’s claims that the US is on the verge of chaos, and to excuse a dramatic increase in militarized police action”.
This case is scary, and each person detained right now could have been anyone on the outside who went to a protest against ICE, expecting to go home right afterwards. As said on their updates, “The government aims to construct a grand tale about criminal conspiracy, shaped by a supposed violent ideology, all based on commonplace and benign practices within political anti-authoritarian spaces. “
Please show these defendants the support they need and help fight back against scare tactics!
On the “About the Defendants” page, you can learn more about each one, and how to write letters to them:
