Rally in New Brunswick to End Detention Abuse in Middlesex County (Thursday, May 15)

END DETENTION ABUSE IN MIDDLESEX

CIVIL RIGHTS FOR ALL!

RALLY Thursday, May 15th at 6:30 pm at the Middlesex County Freeholder
Meeting

Innocent immigrants are suffering in jails all across America! In
2007,
311,213 were illegally detained. Immigrant detainees do not have
access to
basic human rights—like due process, a jury trial or even adequate
medical
care. No mandatory standards exist.

Right here in Middlesex County, where over 150 immigrant detainees are
held,
the county is making over $6 million a year off of their suffering.
On March
2nd a Cuban detainee held in detention at Middlesex County Jail died
from
medical neglect. Over 90 detainees wrote a petition to protest his
death and a
week later detainees signed a 2nd petition protesting conditions
inside
Middlesex County Jail. Don't let their brave actions be go
unnoticed!

Take a stand for civil rights for all!
SAY NO TO ABU GHRAIB AND GUANTANAMO IN OUR BACKYARD!

Join NJCRDC to demand the
Middlesex County Freeholders
stop profiting from the suffering of innocent people.

Terminate the Contract NOW!

Meet on Thursday, May 15th at 6:30 pm
Middlesex County Freeholders meeting
Administration Bldg, 75 Bayard St, New Brunswick
