Mexico: Letter from Anarchist Prisoner Jorge “Yorch” Esquivel

May 26, 2024

Hello!

Compas, as you already know, the hearing was postponed yet again until May 29 at 10am.

Well, this time the hearing couldn’t happen as the prosecuting attorney had diarrhea and wanted to go home. You can imagine the indignation this caused me, but at nearly 18 months of being locked up, we continue resisting.

I would like it if you could come on May 29 to pressure the court or to put pressure on from your respective trenches.

I hope to be with you on that side of the wall unless the court comes up with another charade.

Thank you to the crew who came out last weekend to the event at Okupa Che. To the fujitiva crew for the vegetables they sent me. To all those that have attended the anti-carceral activities at La Clandestina, I thank you for the cards, the support, and remind you that my handicrafts are there for those who want to support me by buying them. Thank you very much, compas. I send a hug and I hope to see you soon.

Freedom for political prisoners!

Sincerely,

El Yorch
