“Little Guantanamo” Exposing the CMU by Daniel McGowan, Spring 2009

Messed up news as another political prisoner drifts through the modern American gulag archipelago. Hits BoingBoing @ least, & our friend Will Potter breaks out the case... This appears to be mainly about the government's interest in information warfare -- IE blacking out supporters' connection to the defendant. Judge & hierarchy unhappy McGowan has a website, oh noes! ...

It's 10 pm on the east coast and a few hours ago we finally heard from Daniel. He called from the Columbia County Jail in Portage, Wisconsin. Daniel was woken up at 4 am and on a plane en route from Oklahoma City to Chicago by 6 am. Daniel and his supporters presumed he was going to Marion, Illinois, but once he landed in Chicago, he was put in a van and driven to Madison, Wisconsin. From there he was driven to Portage.
