PLEASE blast Governor Haley Barbour's office! Jamie Scott was taken
by ambulance to the hospital yesterday and returned to the prison thereafter and 
we've been told that she is very severely depressed.  We have no official report on 
what was done to her there but believe that it could at the very least have included 
her having a dialysis treatment performed.  We have some important organizing 
updates to share, so please forward and ACT!

The Action Committee for Women in Prison just posted a BRAND NEW 
petition specific to getting compassionate release for Jamie Scott and we 
need to get as many people to sign on as quickly as possible, so please go to
http://tinyurl.com/yfrj5g6 and SEND IT TO OTHERS.

Peggy Plews of Mississippi Prison Watch did an outstanding appeal to the Mississippi 
Kidney Foundation at http://mississippiprisonwatch.blogspot.com/2010/02/mississippi-kidney-foundation-appeal.html,
which includes the following powerful statement:
"It may well be that Jamie's crisis is the catalyst that gets so much needed focus on the critically and terminally ill in prison; without her voice, countless others may suffer in invisibility. And her example of survival and resistance is an inspiration to other women living and dying there, too."  Check it out, she was very thorough!

The Women Behind the Wall blogtalk radio program hosted by Mary Ellen and Gloria on 2/9
provided a lot of education and insight from those who could personally testify to being sick 
inside of those hellholes and the lack of caring offered by the corporations which dole out 
what passes for medical care, some of which has to come directly from the inmates' own 
pockets!  This program featured Mrs. Rasco and Shakeerah Abdul al-Sabuur, paralegal, 
and is archived at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/4justicenow/2010/02/09/women-behind-the-wall?&utm_source=remail&utm_medium=listener 

The fantastic San Francisco Bay View continues to be our leading print resource and has 
posted a wonderful new piece today at the site:  http://www.sfbayview.com/2010/compassionate-release-for-jamie-scott/

We've added in a new link to the Govs' assistant and ask that folks please
CALL into the governor's office for maximum effect, but additionally follow-up
with e-mails, letters, faxes and anything possible.  Please do something
rather than nothing at all!


Thank you so much, everyone!
