Courageous animal rights activist, Camille Marino, will be facing trial
in Detroit, Michigan on November 14th. Camille has been targeted by the
Vivisection Complex as the number one threat to their continued ability to
torture non-human animals in anonymity for profit. They are attempting to
make an example of her in their ongoing battle to erode our First Amendment
rights and intimidate the Animal Rights movement into impotence. Her current
prosecutor is under enormous pressure from vivisectors around the country to
neutralize Camille and it appears that the state will be seeking an upward
deviation in her sentencing guidelines should she be convicted. The FBI
confiscated her cell phone in May and is most likely actively cooperating in
this case.
In addition, as a result of her ongoing battle to expose
the horrific abuses at the University of Florida, the Florida Department of
Law Enforcement raided her home in June, confiscating her computer and other
items. Camille spent her own money to sue UF and legally compel them to
release their records, which document the experiments to which they subject
monkeys. Because of these and other actions she has taken in defense of the
sentient victims of vivisection, Camille is deserving of the support of
everyone interested in ending the oppression of animals.
The costs of
mounting a legal defense, repeated round trips to Detroit, replacing the
items confiscated by government agencies and continuing to fearlessly
represent the animals, are staggering. Camille is now in serious debt for
the cost of her recent trip to Detroit for her pretrial hearing, and she
must pay her attorney $6000, so he can properly prepare for her trial.
Whatever you think of Camille's style, she is a committed and
incorruptible advocate for the animals. She needs and deserves the support
of every animal activist. I urge you to give what you can to help this
dedicated activist in her time of need. Donations may be sent via PayPal or

115 Sugar Maple Avenue Wildwood, FL 34785 In a further effort to defray the
costs of trial, Camille's book "Danger
to Society: Jailhouse Diary of a Political Prisoner" will be released by
NAALPO shortly in which she discusses her mistakes, several actions,
campaigns, what is is like to be a political prisoner, and her
uncompromising vision for Animal Liberation. I hope you will enjoy this
effort and be inspired by it. In solidarity, Ron Roberts
