Medical Alert: Leonard Peltier Must Be Transferred 6FEB11

"Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured."
- Hebrews 13:3


At this time, Mr. Peltier's most pressing need is proper medical care.  His only hope of being seen by qualified physicians and receiving care that complies with standard medical protocols is to be immediately transferred to another facility.  For background information on this current crisis, read our November 2010 press release at http://www.whoisleonardpeltier.info/pressrelease20101115.htm.

Dear Mr. Lappin:

It has come to my attention that Leonard Peltier #89637-132, an inmate at the U.S. Penitentiary in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, is in dire need of medical attention.

I believe that Mr. Peltier's medical needs are urgent. He needs to be seen by proper medical staff. Therefore, I respectfully request that Leonard Peltier be transferred to FCI-Oxford in Wisconsin or FMC-Rochester in Minnesota. Either of these facilities can adequately accommodate Mr. Peltier's medical needs.

Thank you in advance for transferring Leonard Peltier and immediately addressing his medical needs!

Sincerely,



Signature
