Call-in campaign to support two #Vaughn17 comrades.
Two defendants from the latest #Vaughn17 trial, Kevin Berry and Abednego Baynes, were just acquitted on all charges and are still being held at James T. Vaughn Correctional. This is the same facility where the prison riot took place on February 1st, 2017, and conditions have not changed! Prisoners have reached out and asked for people on the outside to call the warden and demand that Kevin and Abednego get transferred to a lesser security facility.
Great news!
The 2nd group of #Vaughn17 defendants not charged!
Abednego Baynes & Kevin Berry acquitted, & no unanimous decision about John Bramble & Obadiah Miller.Our hearts are with the defendants & their families!#BurnThePrisons #AbolitionNowhttps://t.co/vNYr4ScJAH pic.twitter.com/PgigeixYN1
