140117 John Kiriakou, CIA
Whistleblower JUST DEFIANCE Posting
Got this email today, from 'Firedoglake', a USA website, who do Righteous stuff.
Just,
Former CIA officer
and torture whistleblower John Kiriakou had a deal with the Bureau of
Prisons: he would stop writing "Letters from Loretto,"
decline the press and drop his complaints in exchange for 9 months in
a halfway house. 1
But in a new
letter, John says prison officials are going back on their deal to
have him out by August 2014. Now they are threatening to keep him in
prison for 6 months longer than they originally promised. Sensing
that the situation has become "political in nature," John
has decided to end his silence and fight back, and we're standing
with him.
In a matter of
weeks, Erlinda Hernandez at the BOP will decide whether John will go
to the halfway house or remain in prison for longer than he was
promised. Can you please write her a letter immediately and ask for
John Kiriakou to be moved to the halfway house for 9 months?
The address is:
Erlinda Hernandez
Bureau of Prisons
Residential
Reentry Office
P.O. Box 7000
Butner, NC 27509
If possible,
please copy:
Mr. Charles
Samuels
Director of Bureau
of Prisons
320 First St. NW
Washington, DC
20534
Your letter should
be simple and to-the-point: John Kiriakou is a patriotic American who
blew the whistle on war crimes. He has been an exceptional prisoner
and deserves to be at home with his wife and five children, not in a
federal penitentiary. Please give John Kiriakou 9 months in a halfway
house so that he will be released by August 2014.
Hernandez and the
Bureau of Prisons will be deciding John's fate at the end of this
month. Please write to them immediately in support of their original
deal.
Thanks for all you
do.
In solidarity,

So, as I've championed John Kiriakou's case before, I guess I will again, to my massive readership.
Instead of writing a snaily to the said addresses in the text above, I just sound it out from here, and expect the couple of officials will get it, somehow.

And
Mr. Charles Samuels

Let Mr Kiriakou go, please. He's done more than many, in serving the Common Interests of your American Citizens, and is clearly no terrorist.
Release him, and watch him give more of his years to serving the USA.
