<br><p>Jeremy Hawthorne, arrested September 5th, 2011 while on a Copwatch
patrol, is going on trial before a jury for allegedly slashing 7 tires
on Virginia Commonwealth University vehicles, including two police cars.
The charge is Destruction of State Property > $1,000, a Class 6
Felony.The case is clearly politically motivated; as a part of Richmond
Copwatch, Jeremy is one of several who have been targeted by Richmond
police in past months for their work against police brutality and poor
jail conditions in the city. The notoriously heavy-handed RPD and its
officers, ever the subject of much controversy, have bristled and taken a
particularly antagonistic attitude with activists, protestors, and
copwatchers, reacting in a consistently aggressive, violent, and
reckless manner. Accountability, on the other hand, has been elusive.</p>
<p>The “evidence” used to indict Jeremy is insubstantial, and many
details surrounding testimonies evidence gathering, and the
circumstances leading to Jeremy’s arrest, are questionable at best.<br>
Commonwealth Attorney Christopher Toepp is handling the case per his
personal request, intent on a full conviction. Toepp has had a long year
of high-profile cases, having been on the prosecution for the Monroe
Park Occupation, and the African burial ground demonstration. If Chris
Toepp has his way, Jeremy would face 5 years in prison.<br>
The description of the person depicted in the so-far unreleased
surveillance footage is incredibly mundane: a beard, a hat (maybe camo,
brown, or black?), tattoos, a black sleeveless or rolled-up shirt, a
bag, and a step-thru frame bike. In Richmond, this could easily be
thousands of people. The alleged acts occurred on August 23rd, the
Monday proceeding Best Friends Day, meaning hundreds more out-of-town
hipster look-alikes were wild in the streets.</p>
<p>We encourage all those who think they may roughly fit this
description to come to the hearing, inside the courtroom and out, as
part of a “beard bloc.”</p>
<p>Folks who wish to come out in support- the hearing will be in
courtroom 305 of the John Marshall Court Building, 400 N. Ninth St.,
Richmond, Virginia; 9:30AM Wednesday, February 1st.</p>

We ask all to donate to his legal fund, via the Richmond Anarchist Black Cross (2005 Barton Avenue, Richmond, VA 23222).</p>
<p> Our friends Eric Scott and Hunter Singleton also really need help with their legal fees after their arrests in a November Occupy Richmond march. Visit <a href="http://richmondlegalsupport.wordpress.com" target="_blank">richmondlegalsupport.wordpress.com</a> for more information.<br>

<br>I agree. But then again, they've been doing a lot of unjustifiable things lately. Didn't they arrest 3(?) people at first, and then just charged Jeremy, when there was only one person in said "surveillance"?<br>

<br>A beard bloc. Hahaha nice. <br><br>I'm wondering how readily people are going to be willing to come out, especially because anyone with that description could be accused of the crime. Just a thought. This is a great (and funny) idea!<br>

Cc: <br>Date: Thu, 19 Jan 2012 21:45:25 -0500<br>Subject: [FlyingBrickAnnouncements] Solidarity with Jeremy Hawthorne! Calling all Beards!<br>Current Flying Brick resident, Jeremy Hawthorne, needs your help! Please read this and forward it to anyone who might be interested!<br>
<br><p>Jeremy Hawthorne, arrested September 5th, 2011 while on a Copwatch
patrol, is going on trial before a jury for allegedly slashing 7 tires
on Virginia Commonwealth University vehicles, including two police cars.
The charge is Destruction of State Property > $1,000, a Class 6
Felony.The case is clearly politically motivated; as a part of Richmond
Copwatch, Jeremy is one of several who have been targeted by Richmond
police in past months for their work against police brutality and poor
jail conditions in the city. The notoriously heavy-handed RPD and its
officers, ever the subject of much controversy, have bristled and taken a
particularly antagonistic attitude with activists, protestors, and
copwatchers, reacting in a consistently aggressive, violent, and
reckless manner. Accountability, on the other hand, has been elusive.</p>
<p>The “evidence” used to indict Jeremy is insubstantial, and many
details surrounding testimonies evidence gathering, and the
circumstances leading to Jeremy’s arrest, are questionable at best.<br>
Commonwealth Attorney Christopher Toepp is handling the case per his
personal request, intent on a full conviction. Toepp has had a long year
of high-profile cases, having been on the prosecution for the Monroe
Park Occupation, and the African burial ground demonstration. If Chris
Toepp has his way, Jeremy would face 5 years in prison.<br>
The description of the person depicted in the so-far unreleased
surveillance footage is incredibly mundane: a beard, a hat (maybe camo,
brown, or black?), tattoos, a black sleeveless or rolled-up shirt, a
bag, and a step-thru frame bike. In Richmond, this could easily be
thousands of people. The alleged acts occurred on August 23rd, the
Monday proceeding Best Friends Day, meaning hundreds more out-of-town
hipster look-alikes were wild in the streets.</p>
<p>We encourage all those who think they may roughly fit this
description to come to the hearing, inside the courtroom and out, as
part of a “beard bloc.”</p>
<p>Folks who wish to come out in support- the hearing will be in
courtroom 305 of the John Marshall Court Building, 400 N. Ninth St.,
Richmond, Virginia; 9:30AM Wednesday, February 1st.</p>

We ask all to donate to his legal fund, via the Richmond Anarchist Black Cross (2005 Barton Avenue, Richmond, VA 23222).</p>
<p> Our friends Eric Scott and Hunter Singleton also really need help with their legal fees after their arrests in a November Occupy Richmond march. Visit <a href="http://richmondlegalsupport.wordpress.com" target="_blank">richmondlegalsupport.wordpress.com</a> for more information.<br>
