At approximately 11:38 AM EST on March 10, 2008, long time environmental activist and community organizer Marie Mason was arrested by federal agents. Marie has been harassed (she has been raided by federal agents in the past) by the FBI for over a year, repeatedly refusing their requests to discuss Midwest ELF actions. She is currently being held in Butler County jail (southwestern Ohio) pending transfer to Michigan, and her charges remain unknown. Friends are in the process of establishing a support network for Marie and raising funds for any potential legal costs. To get in contact with Marie’s support crew, email freemarie@riseup.net.
