Implications for Seattle protesters using civil disobedience: Jury finds Spokane 3 protesters guilty of federal conspiracy charges

Implications for Seattle protesters using civil disobedience: Jury finds Spokane 3 protesters guilty of federal conspiracy charges

The defendants, along with hundreds of other people, responded to a Facebook post last June that asked people to come to the Spokane ICE building and sit in front of a bus that was scheduled to take two unlawfully detained asylum-seekers from Spokane to the Tacoma ICE processing facility.

This has huge implications for protesters using civil disobedience everywhere, including the Seattle protesters who do things like block ICE facility driveways.
