Leonard Peltier, imprisoned Native American activist, has new message for Biden in clemency push
Peltier, 77, has been held since 1977 for the deaths of two FBI agents. He maintains his innocence, and supporters say he deserves to be released on compassionate grounds.

Leonard Peltier, the Native American activist who has been imprisoned for nearly half a century for the murders of two FBI agents he has always maintained he didn't commit, is hopeful he'll have a chance to clear his name before he dies.
Peltier, 77, wants President Joe Biden to review his case and grant him clemency so he won't die in prison.
He's not looking for a presidential pardon, because it would be granted for a crime he insists he is innocent of.
Instead, he wants a new trial.
Even DNC Members Are Urging Biden To Let Leonard Peltier Go Home
“It is a matter of justice and compassion,” the DNC’s Native American Caucus leaders said of granting clemency to the ailing Indigenous rights activist.

President Joe Biden is now facing pressure from within the Democratic National Committee to grant clemency to Leonard Peltier, the 77-year-old Indigenous rights activist who has served 46 years in prison despite no evidence that he committed a crime.

Chair Grijalva speaks with imprisoned indigenous activist Leonard Peltier, sends updated clemency request to President Biden
From US Natural Resources Committee, Char-Koosta News Mar 4, 2022
“Like far too many of his Indigenous brothers and sisters, Mr. Peltier’s history has ben fabricated, rewritten, and erased at the hands of the U.S. government,” Chair Grijalva said. “In this case, it is not too late to take a stand against that injustice and move towards making it right. The Biden administration must take this opportunity to correct the record and free Leonard Peltier.”

Justice for Leonard Peltier
WORDS BY RUTH H. HOPKINS, 2.22.2022
“Leonard did not receive a fair trial,” she said. “The fact that Leonard is still behind bars speaks volumes to many of us who have or had incarcerated loved ones. Native Americans have not yet been included in any promise of federal justice reform, this needs to change.” Ruth and others held a Rise Up for Peltier Rally in Fargo, North Dakota, on February 7, 2022, in solidarity with other rallies held regionally, nationally, and globally demanding Leonard Peltier’s release. Jean Roach participated in another rally held that same day in Rapid City, South Dakota.

News > Kite Line > March 4, 2022: Freedom for Leonard Peltier
We return to the topic of long-term prisoner Leonard Peltier. Leonard Peltier is an American Indian organizer who has been imprisoned for 46 years. Now 77, he is suffering from a variety of illnesses exacerbated by his long imprisonment, including diabetes, partial blindness, and an aortic aneurysm. He recently was infected with COVID. A member of the American Indian Movement, Peltier participated in the communal defense of the Pine Ridge reservation in 1975, which had been overrun with police and FBI agents, along with government-backed paramilitaries. He participated in a shootout that led to the deaths of two FBI agents and another Native militant, but denies firing on the feds. He was found in Canada in 1976 and extradited based on false testimony. Today, he is the focus of a renewed effort to secure his release, with nine members of congress signing onto a letter requesting clemency. The question of whether Peltier will die in prison currently hangs in the balance so we are sharing this overview piece from the International Leonard Peltier Defense Committee.

It’s time to free Leonard Peltier, America’s longest serving political Prisoner
KCRW, Scheer Intelligence, by Robert Scheer Dec. 03, 2021
Now, as Peltier struggles with his health at the age of 77, there is mounting pressure for President Biden to offer the Native American activist the presidential pardon so many of his predecessors--including Bill Clinton--have failed to give him. This week Sen. Patrick Leahy became the most senior U.S. government official to call for Peltier’s release, joining hundreds of thousands of people, including Pope Francis, Coretta Scott King, and Willie Nelson, who have expressed their support for Peltier. Even James Reynolds, the U.S. attorney who helped put Peltier in prison in the 1970s, appealed in a letter to Biden to send Peltier home.“I write today from a position rare for a former prosecutor: to beseech you to commute the sentence of a man who I helped put behind bars,” he wrote. “With time, and the benefit of hindsight, I have realized that the prosecution and continued incarceration of Mr. Peltier was and is unjust. We were not able to prove that Mr. Peltier personally committed any offense on the Pine Ridge Reservation.”

'Pure Torture': Leonard Peltier Details Appalling Prison COVID Care
Jennifer Bendery, HuffPost, Feb 23, 2022
https://sg.news.yahoo.com/pure-torture-leonard-peltier-details-224320050.html
“I urge President Biden to commute Leonard Peltier’s prison sentence and release him from federal prison,” Leahy said in a statement. “Peltier, a prominent Native American activist, was imprisoned for crimes he and many other legal experts and advocates maintain he never committed. His trial was so riddled with flaws that even one of the prosecutors trying him has acknowledged that Peltier was wrongfully convicted. Peltier, now 77 years old and ailing with multiple health problems, has served more than 44 years in federal prison.”https://www.huffpost.com/entry/patrick-leahy-biden-leonard-peltier_n_61fd7fade4b0b69cfe8ee30e
