Re: Leonard Peltier ##89637-132
Dear DSCC Officials:
I am contacting you seeking consideration for Mr. Leonard Peltier who will be transferred from Lewisburg, Pennsylvania on Monday, January 12th, 2009. Mr. Peltier has been a model prisoner and deserves to be transferred to a lower security prison based on his prison history and the BOP’s publicized standards of transfer requirements.
The Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation has passed a tribal resolution asking to take custody and care for Mr. Peltier, including oversight of his integration plan and post placement. Please consider this option for Mr. Peltier’s transfer first and foremost.
Mr. Peltier should be transferred to a facility close to his home based on the hardship policy of the Bureau of Prisons, because not only has he grown older while in prison, but his family has grown older, is on a fixed income which limits the time they can visit him. Mr. Peltier has served over 32 years in prison, more than half of his life, and deserves to be close to his family during this crucial time in his and their lives. He has several bad health conditions that warrant attention and as most well know is reaching the life expectancy of prisoners.
For these reasons I ask that you transfer Mr. Peltier to the Turtle Mountain Reservation’s custody as soon as possible. The alternatives that would help satisfy this request are either the federal facility in Sandstone Minnesota or Oxford Wisconsin as both are near in proximity to his family.
In the name of all things good and humane, I ask you to do the right thing for compassion’s sake in the transfer of Leonard Peltier today. Thank you and may the Creator bless you.
Sincerely,
Please write to the Federal Bureau of Prisons on behalf of Leonard Peltier regarding his transfer of Monday, January 12th, 2009!!!!!
