Will Potter: "Don't turn your back on the fear"

About 90 people came to Cowles Auditorium on the University of Minnesota's West Bank last Thursday to hear journalist and activist Will Potter speak about the "Green Scare" and the use of terrorism laws to silence political activists. Potter is an independent journalist who authors GreenIsTheNewRed.com and earlier in the day spoke at William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul.

Potter was introduced by Dallas Rising of the Animal Rights Coalition, who told of how her organization was targeted in a terrorism investigation last year by the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office. The organization only found out about the investigation after being contacted by a Pioneer Press reporter, she said, and the "investigation" as she knew it mostly consisted of pages from the ARC website, including a nonviolence pledge and articles about animal abuse. The targeting of such groups shows that state and corporate interests "are trying to destroy the entire animal rights and environmental movement," not just underground groups, said Potter.

Marie Mason Sentenced to 22 Years

Marie Mason received a 262 month sentence (a little under 22 years) today. She was also ordered to pay $4+ million in restitution.

The prosecution had asked for 20 years and agreed not to appeal if the sentence was at least 15.

Mason’s lawyer John Minock had argued that, compared to the other Green Scare cases in Oregon, “a non-disparate sentence would be less than 10 years.”

Mason’s sentence is the longest given to any Green Scare defendant to date.

A court report will be posted soon.
