Rob Prince’s Day in Court – A notice I sent out to family and friends

Tomorrow  morning, Wednesday, June 12 at 8:30 I will be in court as a result of having been arrested for a civil disobedience I participated in on December 3, to end the U.S. sponsored, Israeli executed genocide in Gaza.

That event was organized by the group Front Range Jewish Voice for Peace. The main demand of that day was the call for a permanent bilateral ceasefire. I have accepted the city attorney’s offer to plead guilty in exchange for a six month probation period that includes community service. I will be asking that the community service be 32 hours assisting my daughter, Molly Prince, a special ed teacher in the Mapleton School District who teaches kids who need improved English skills.

My lawyer, Margeret “Peggy” Carey has informed me that I have the possibility of making a statement after accepting the verdict and I intend to do so. It will be rather brief – 5 to 10 minutes at most – but I want to lay out certain comments at this time. While I do not know exactly what time my case will be heard, I was told to report to Courtroom B at the Lindsay-FlanaganCourthouse. 520 W. Colfax Ave, Denver, CO 80204.

If you can make it, I invite you to join me in court.

Cheers,

Rob P.
