Standford 5 – Pack the Court
Wed, March 18 at 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM
ACTION ALERT! PACK THE COURT & RALLY FOR THE STANFORD11: DEFENSE FILES MOTION TO RECUSE SANTA CLARA COUNTY DA’s OFFICE
The trial against 5 of the Stanford 11 ended in a mistrial last month. Despite the fact that the state has failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that these activists committed anything other than a protest against Stanford’s complicity in genocide, it only took DA Rosen 30 minutes to announce that he would be trying the case again.
The defense has filed a motion to disqualify DA Rosen and his office from the Stanford 11 felony protest case, arguing that they will not receive a fair trial with Rosen’s prosecution.
This is the moment to continue to show up. Prosecution’s allegiance to a foreign war criminal cannot be allowed to influence their targeting of student protesters. As the US continues to escalate its imperialist aggression abroad, we will all need to fight to protect out right to dissent at home.
A packed courtroom sends a clear message: the Bay Area stands against fascist lawfare. We stand in support of our right to protest, no matter how hard the state tries to isolate, intimidate, and criminalize student resistance.
