Marie Mason

Last Thursday my friend Marie Mason received a sentence of 22 years in prison for an act of sabotage against genetically modified organism (GMO) research 9 years ago. This is the longest sentence given to any eco-activist doing time in the US. I am sad about this extreme sentence and I am hopeful that it will be shortened in the pending appeal.
