Josh did not get a Thanksgiving furlough and the judge was not willing to release him and end the contempt order and subsequent incarceration. Then yesterday we found out that the judge had also refused the request to view the tape in question to determine if it had any relevancy to what the US Attorney [...]
Note:This is one of several posts that went “missing” recently. It was actually written October 30, 2006. Listening to Democracy Now! this morning, I learned about the life and death of Brad Will, and was shaken by his story. I’m not sure if I’ve ever met Brad or not, but I’m certain I have friends [...]
Good evening. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to make it tonight to accept this award. But I just couldn’t leave my live-work loft.

I was able to see Josh for two hours each day last weekend, which was great. He looks good and is trying to keep up his spirits. He is feeling pretty discouraged as it looks most likely that he will be in jail until the Grand Jury ends, which is supposed to be July, 2007. [...]
