Some Released, Some Still Held, Many Outside Demanding Release.
A number of people have been released, a number are still inside, and many others are outside raising hell.
According to reports, a number of detainees have been released on the own recog. A few of them were from Baltimore, and the others released have not been confirmed yet as to their hometowns. Also according to the reports, ARA lawyer Larry Hildes has also been released.
Quite a few others are still being held. No definate number yet, but it is at least 6, most likely more. The confirmed detainees include one from Toronto and two from Claustrophobia (Balto), One from Food Not Bombs (Balto), two involved with Black Planet (Balto), and one from New Jersey ARA. According to the New Jersey contact, she's doing pretty shitty and although a number had been released, there were more that are meeting with the comish now.
The bails range from $5.000 for the Toronto detainee (who is concerned, but not worried with deportation.), $10.000 for most of the Baltimoreans, and the highest set at $12.500 for Than from Claustrophobia.
After talking to the boyfriend of one of the Black Planet members, he informed me she is being charged with 7 counts. They range from disturbing the peace to assault with a deadly weapon; facing 35 years.
There is jail solidarity going on right now in front of Central Booking. For those who cannot make it, call the police at 410.396.2525 and demand for the anti-racists to be released. For those interested in joining the support, follow these directions:
From the south:
Take 95 north, and take the exit for 395 toward Baltimore. Take the exit for Downtown/Inner Harbor.
At the stadiums, make a right on Conway St.
Make a left on Light St. and then follow the right fork onto Pratt St.
Follow pratt accoss the Inner Harbor, and make a left on President St.
Make your way to the far right lane. When President starts to become the Jones Falls Expressway/I-83 at Fayette St., stay in the far right lane and exit onto Fallsway.
Follow that right on Madison, the jail right near there.
It's a big ugly building, you can't miss it.
From the north:
Take 695 to 83 south.
Follow 83 to exit one, Pleasant St. This is a left exit, and at the end of the exit, make a left turn.
At the first light, turn left. This is Fallsway, and the jail will be ahead on the right.
