Four of them, three IVAW guys, Steve Mortillo, Joe Hatcher, and Toby Hartbarger, and Gregory Watson, a
friend, still had the pamphlets and were arrested.
Geoffrey Millard had been doing an interview, and so was held up. When he caught up and saw that his
friends were being arrested, he went up to the cops and told them he was the one who had done it.
All five were held in a police station on the Pentagon grounds and were charged with violating a lawful
order and illegally posting materials – both federal misdemeanors. All 5 have now been released, but
they missed Ray McGovern‘s and Karen Kwiatkowski‘s speeches at Camp Democracy.
For those in DC, the recently released Prisoner of Conscience, Kevin Benderman, will be giving a speech
to the Congressional Black Caucus at 7pm Eastern, Saturday night at St. Aloysius Church, 900 N. Capital
Street Northwest, near Union Station Metro, redline.
