Briana Waters is an old Olympia resident that is being tried in Tacoma, WA, regarding her alleged involvement in the UW Center for Urban Horticulture arson in 2001. Briana steadfastly maintains her innocence. Her pretrial conference hearing is this Friday, January 25, 2008. It is important to attend wearing court clothes and appropriate attitudes for court. Her life is on the line.

Who is Briana Waters? Briana Waters is a mother, violin teacher and amazing videographer. She did the documentary "Watch" about the successful tress sit/ labor campaign in Randle, WA. She is being persecuted by the government in the "green scare round up".

Why is this important to Olympia? This is important for several reasons. First, the Olympia has been and will be under the scrutiny of mass infiltrations, snitches, and general FBI interrogation. Second, it is important for Olympia to step up and document what the federal government is doing.

This is our amazing community and we have a responsibility to bear witness to this trial about our community and be the alternative media. This is not about the alleged arson. This is about the further suppression of our organizing in Olympia and throughout the world. We have an amazing community and amazing network to get the TRUTH out!
