On July 26th, after several delays, Tim was sentenced to 2 years in federal prison, 3 years of supervised probation and a $10,000 fine.  PLEASE donate now to help his legal team prepare for appeal.

Read Tim's Statement at sentencing.

Tim has arrived at his permanent home for the next 2 years, Herlong FCI in Herlong, California.  Tim's address is provided below and for more information on how to send books and/or magazines, for more detailed updates on Tim and what he needs, please check: http://www.peacefuluprising.org/tim-dechristopher

A few of us were able to visit Tim this past Thursday, and he asked us to pass a message onto everyone: "This has not deterred me, nor should it deter you from further action.  I would not have changed a thing." 

HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT TIM:

Write him a letter (or lots of letters!)  Packages are not allowed, nor are any letters that contain glue, stickers or glitter. only letters in regular envelopes with complete return addresses, addressed to the following:

If you'd like to visit Tim, please contact Dylan Schneider at:  dylan@peacefuluprising.org.  Please, do not show up to the jail or prison without contacting Dylan.  Any demonstrations or protestors will only hurt Tim. 

Please consider making a generous donation to Tim DeChristopher's Legal Defense Fund.  With Tim now in prison we must prepare for an all out appeal.  Ron Yengich and Pat Shea have volunteered their time to date and will continue to do so for the appeal.  They estimate Tim will need over $50,000 for a well prepared appeal to the 10th Circuit.  Any help with financial donation will be most helpful and appreciated.

One of Tim's requests was to set up interactive book groups around the Country or the World!  Once Tim is settled, we wil be creating a reading book list, based on the History of Social Movements.  Tim will be reading the same book on the inside that we read on the outside and then will send his thoughts to be posted and invite discussion, so stay tuned! 

This kind of trial is nothing but intimidation-- and the best answers to intimidation are joy and resolve. That’s what we’ll need in Utah.
