Instead of keeping my legal work on the shelf in my cell, I decided that it might be of interest.  Having been through the court system a few times I take for granted that others might find interesting some of the processes involved.  Enclosed is my plea agreement from the federal court in Colorado.  As with any plea agreement I have signed, this one is a “no-cooperation” deal, meaning that I refused to cooperate with the federal government in this or any other case.

You will also see enclosed the motion for upward departure.  In Utah, the prosecutor did not feel that the maximum amount of time was sufficient and put this argument to the judge.  The judge denied this motion, which is good for me, because if he hadn’t I would now be serving 25 years in prison instead of 12.  This is what was being held over my head in court as pressure to not make another defiant court statement.  Although I was a nervous wreck, I still spoke out.  I got a laugh out of the U.S. Attorney’s statement in the upward departure motion that I’m “basking in the afterglow of my arsons.”  If I was half as badass as he makes me appear, I would be twice as badass as I’ve ever been.  The upward departure motion is also a good indicator of the vexation that the government has not only for me, but also Earth and Animal Liberation in general.

Also you will see a brief explanation of why I was immediately segregated on the CMU (Communications Management Unit) directly from county jail.  To this day, I have not been allowed one moment in the general population.

And lastly is a motion I filed in county jail in Utah to get decent food.  I had to hunger strike to even get a vegetarian tray.  The staff in Davis County had an obvious contempt for Vegan Straightedge.

Of course, as with any court document, there are embellishments, half-truths and lies.  But it is also a rare glimpse into the government’s ongoing war against Nature, Animals and those that resist their desecration.

For Liberation,

Walter
