As of this week, hundreds of thousands of Haitians lost their legal status. Most have lost work permits as well. That's left many people unable to support themselves. Here is a verified link to a fundraiser supporting Haitians in Springfield. Please drop links to other fundraisers in the replies.

Imagine if you mailed the IRS a check to pay your taxes, but they left their mail unopened for years and then arrested you for failure to pay taxes. That’s effectively what ICE is doing to increasing numbers of people now; people out of status only because of GOVERNMENT delay.

Slide describing horrible conditions of the most vulnerable defendants: Meagan Morris is alone in a maximum security pod, Rowan Gibson and Lucy Fowlkes are being housed in an infirmary cell with cooperating defendants, Maricela Rueda and Zachary Evetts are still in seg, being strip searched up to 3 times a day, Benjamin Song received a disciplinary from a female guard who illegally strip searched them, a PREA violation, who later lied about them not following orders. Their punishment: segregation and no visitation.

Slide with contact info to the judge:
Judge Chris Boedeker

JUDGEBOEDEKER@JOHNSONCOUNTYTX.ORG

Hello, I’m calling on behalf of people incarcerated here who are facing horrendous conditions. All of the Prairieland defendants need to be moved to general population immediately.

Holding people in administrative seg violates due process. Are you aware of that? (Wait for response). Maricela Rueda and Zachary Evetts are being held in administrative seg yet they have no disciplinaries against them. They need to be placed in general population immediately.

Are you aware that cross gender strip searches are a PREA violation? (wait for response). Then why are female guards bragging about stripping down male bodies? Why has Benjamin Song been strip searched by a female guard who later gave Song a disciplinary?

Meagan Morris needs to be put in general population. As a trans woman, she is vulnerable being in a cell by herself and needs to be with other incarcerated people who do not have such power over her body.

Please keep watching for the Prairieland defendants' state trials. 20 people have state charges related to this case. While today's federal sentences are horrific, they are not the end. Texas also seeks to make examples of the Prairieland defendants, but we cannot let them. This fight is not over.

This is a facebook post from Ríhanna Novalee ChasingStars, ie Ríhanna Kelver. It reads:

Hello! Welcome those who have found my Facebook! My name is Rihanna Kelver and yes, I am currently facing two felony charges after defending myself from a violent hate crime.

If you are a member of the press, please feel free to message me through here or at rihanna_kelver@outlook.com.

If you are someone looking to support me and my legal fund. You can find my Venmo at @Rihanna_Kelver or https://venmo.com/u/Rihanna_Kelver

The reason I have to use my Venmo is because we’ve been kicked off three crowd funding sites now due to ToS violations. Apparently surviving a hate crime and being charged for surviving it constitutes “fundraising for the defense of a violent crime.”

Anyways, thank you all so much for your support and keep up the good fight 💖🏳️‍⚧️

📣 PRAIRIELAND FEBRUARY 17 TRIAL UPDATES 📣 MISTRIAL DECLARED On the first day of trial, Trump appointee Judge Pittman preemptively declared a mistrial, suspending the jury selection process and delaying the start of trial.

Slide 1: Announcement of a mistrial, featuring bold text and a bird illustration on a yellow background.
Text reads: PRAIRIELAND FEBRUARY 17 TRIAL UPDATES MISTRIAL DECLARED On the first day of trial, Trump appointee Judge Pittman preemptively declared a mistrial, suspending the jury selection process and delaying the start of trial.
We are left to wonder if the seemingly sympathetic jury and the large show of support outside the courthouse influenced the judge’s rash decision.

Slide 2: Yellow poster with "PRAIRIELAND FEBRUARY 17 TRIAL UPDATES" and details about trial delays. Includes QR codes and a bird illustration.

Text reads: PRAIRIELAND FEBRUARY 17 TRIAL UPDATES What this means for the case is still unclear, though we know this will mean a significant delay, if only even a week, for defendants who have suffered terrible jail conditions while awaiting trial. More details about the trial as well as ways to show up for defendants will be provided as they become available. [square qr code] signal announcements channel
