Update: Keene PD’s Attempt to Jail Free Keene’s Ian on Hold

RiveraFirst, Keene Police prosecutor Eli Rivera sent the Keene District Court a motion to show cause, claiming I should be thrown in a jail cell for promoting Andrew Carroll’s heroic marijuana civil disobedience.

Here’s what happened after that:

We sent back this response, denying the prosecutor’s claims and showing them we’d be playing ball this time.

They replied with a supplement claiming I had not only promoted the disobedience, but that I participated in possessing cannabis.

We responded by saying they have no case and until there is a conviction, by the judges’ own definition of a suspended sentence, they have no cause to pull the suspended sentence and place me in jail.

Additionally, from my reading of the original order, the suspended sentence is now up.

Finally, they sent this document recently, claiming that the original motion is being held “in abeyance” until the outcome of their trial for Andrew on May 1st.

Sorry for taking so long putting this out there and thanks for your interest! Come join the fun here in Keene!
