Today in court, Eric King accepted a non-cooperating plea agreement to a federal felony charge that carries a sentence of 10 years in prison. The charge is 18 U.S.C. § 844(h), use of explosive materials to commit arson of property used in or affecting interstate commerce. Eric was arrested in September 2014 and has fought his charges since then, suffering through terrible conditions in the private prison he’s been held captive in since his arrest.

It has come to our attention through Eric’s attorney that he has been placed in the hole again during the shake-down of the facility. He has been told that he will have a disciplinary hearing next week to determine if he will remain in segregation. We ask for continued solidarity in blasting Eric with cards and letters.

These walls
silent as the dark & lost
haunting as a ghost
these walls
will fucking crush us all
if we ever give up hope
these walls
steal inches by the hour
pressing down & smashing joy
these walls
will gladly break us all
if we ever give them the power
these walls
snap shots of decaying minds
cold and without mercy
block out the sun, in case it shines
shocks out the dark in case it’s night
these walls
will kill us all
if we dont have the will to bear it

We have just received word that Eric’s trial is likely to be continued yet again. Eric’s public defender has entered a motion to continue his trial date until March 8th, so that we can have more time to prepare for trial or otherwise resolve the case. We expect that the judge will grant the motion.
