Red Alert

Leonard Peltier


On December 11, 1995, following his parole hearing, Leonard Peltier was abruptly moved from Leavenworth Penitentiary to the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Leonard was not allowed to pack up any of his things! Art work-belongings-EVERYTHING was left at Leavenworth. The warden at the Federal Penitentiary at Atlanta is Willie Scott, the same Willie Scott who, while warden at Leavenworth, targeted Leonard, creating a dangerous situation for him.

It is imperative to call Atlanta penitentiary at 404/622-6241 and let warden Willie Scott know that Leonard has people who are watching over him. This move comes on the heels of a growing clemency movement. Also, please call the White House at 202/456-1111 and voice your concern. Notify your Senators and call for an inquiry as to why Peltier is being moved to the Atlanta Prison. Your phone call may save Peltier's life!
