<�p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Finally, after years of
unified resistance by the brothers and a the building of massive support,
California State prosecutors were forced to admit that they have
insufficient evidence against the San Francisco 8.<�br>
<�br>
Charges against four of the defendants were dropped and Jalil Muntaqim pled
no contest to conspiracy to commit voluntary manslaughter. The State
prosecutor asked the court to sentence him to 12 months calling it "a
drop in the bucket." Judge Moscone replied "unless you're the one
doing the time." Jalil received credit for time served (close to 2 1/2
years in County Jail) and 3 years probation. He will return to New York to
fight for parole. <�br>
<�br>
The charges were dismissed today against Ray Boudreaux, Richard Brown, Hank
Jones, and Harold Taylor.<�br>
<�br>
The courtroom at 850 Bryant Street was packed with SF 8 supporters after a
rally of hundreds and a huge Free SF 8 banner was displayed on the hillside
of Bernal Heights to be seen from all over the city. (see the photo above)<�br>
<�br>
"This is finally the disposition of a case that should never have been
brought in the first place," announced attorney Soffiyah Elijah.<�br>
<�br>
Francisco Torres still faces a court hearing on August 10th.
Francisco steadfastly maintains his innocence according to his attorney
Charles Bourdon who intends to file a motion to dismiss the charges against
his client. <�br>

No Prison Sentence<�/a> <�o:p><�/o:p><�/h3>
<�p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Herman Bell was supported
by a courtroom of supporters June 29th as he entered a plea in the SF 8
case. After legal formalities he left the courtroom raising a clenched fist
to the crowd. <�br>
<�br>
Herman Bell pled guilty to the reduced charge of voluntary manslaughter for
his role in the killing of San Francisco police officer John Young in 1971.
<�br>
<�br>
Part of the plea agreement is that Herman will not be a witness against his
comrades and friends and cannot be called to any hearing as a witness by
the prosecution.<�br>
<�br>
His sentence is that he will be placed on informal probation for five years
and will be allowed to immediately return to New York. He will receive
absolutely no additional prison time for his actions.<�br>
<�br>
Herman and his co-defendants have always maintained that because of the
torture used by the New Orleans Police Department to gain alleged
confessions and the lack of new evidence, these charges should never have
been brought. <�br>
<�br>
Herman's letter to supporters and friends follows.<�br>
***************************************<�br>

<�br>
Dear friends<�br>
<�br>
Your strong showing of support at my plea/sentencing hearing this past
Monday was truly heartening. For me, removing the possibility of
going to trial when a proposal (though unpalatable) is offered that would
leave open a future chance at parole in another jurisdiction was something
I could not pass up. So I accepted the AG s proposal. There is no disunity
here, just a tactical legal decision having been made. I could never be at
peace with myself if I sat in a prison cell for the rest of my days knowing
that I rejected a proposal that left open possible freedom one day. You
expect me to think and act responsibly and to make responsible decisions. I
expect no less of myself or of you.<�br>
<�br>
I am so proud of you and all the work you ve done in our behalf and in
waking our movement from its lethargyproud of your speaking, proud of your
fund-raising, proud of your organizing (the Labor Council, the City
Supervisors, the Caravan to Sacramentosuch a sweet piece of main stream
organizing, and the tribute to Panther women). So very proud that you were
in court to smile your greetings whenever we appeared; proud that you made
bail for those of us who could bail-out, and that you routinely visited
those of us who could not. I shall miss your frequent visits, so how could
I not go forward in this without a heavy heart. I do so thanking you for
being true to yourselves and thanking you for the love and righteous
support you gave and are giving the SF8. <�br>
<�br>
I love you all.<�br>
<�br>
Herman.<�br style='mso-special-character:line-break'>
