I understood that Jim was released recently, yet the BOP site http://www.bop.gov/iloc2/InmateFinderServlet?Transaction=NameSearch&needingMoreList=false&FirstName=james&Middle=dalton&LastName=bell&Race=U&Sex=U&Age=&x=77&y=28Bell's indicates his "expected" release date is in 2012. Anyone know for certain (Hi Jeff!)? //Alif -- "Never belong to any party, always oppose privileged classes and public plunderers, never lack sympathy with the poor, always remain devoted to the public welfare, never be satisfied with merely printing news, always be drastically independent, never be afraid to attack wrong, whether by predatory plutocracy or predatory poverty." Joseph Pulitzer, 1907 Speech
Last heard from Jim on May 27, 2010. Said he was going to a hearing in Tacoma. Purpose of the hearing not explained. Parole might have been revoked. Don't quote that. He was engaged in a determined effort to overturn his conviction with a string of filings. Also distributing a slew of scientific claims to a slew of corporations and scientists developed while in the pokey. Claimed the inventions and chemical formulas would be Copernican in impact. Impeccably qualified, I studied them closedly, cooked the ingredients, punched the results, hawked the output to vultures at In-Tel-Q for 200K or so -- could of been NASA or ONR or IDA or Lincoln Lab or Iran or North Korea or the Chinese tor-blasting Wiki-fucking-Leaks, I'm still smoked from the centrifuge blow-up. Ding his cell. Jeff will record.
JDB was sentenced to two additional years in federal custody on 7/19/10 with no supervision after release, as punishment for his failure to comply with his earlier supervised release.

The thoughtful update reminder of John Gilmore recently forwarded by RH from Cryptography is apt: advanced resistance is essential, do not succumb to the allure of cooptation, or, as some might say, throw bigger rocks, forgo bigger bucks. As a contrarian rich man might belabor. Jim makes good use of his federally-financed scientific investigation, researching, writing, seething with revenge, beseeching the unbound to come awake from dogmatic slumber. Another in the ancient tradition of outsider preparing the burial ground for the numbnuts who believe they will rule forever. Would he have been smarter to take a job in a deadening lab or corp to feed the maw of useless inventions or, worse, war-killing chemicials, explosives, platforms for standoff murder? MIT has excelled in producing such brilliant slaves to the mighty and almighty dollar, and young Jim was condemned by educational testing to being imprisoned as an obedient brain. Chomsky, yes, Chimsky to the numbnuts, is forever on the verge of having his parole revoked for violating norms of obedience, except MIT needs at least one freedom fighter to offset the tens of thousands of highly trained cretins who welcomed Fautian fellowships of lifetime sentences, with plenty of time to wonder what the fuck happened to the promises made and never fulfilled. MIT is only one of the bait and switch centers of knowledge who recruit the young then lobotomizes them. Jim said he was not feeling well that day so missed the mandatory brain elision. Jeff Gordon and lawful simians might well see that the valiant dissident is officially neutered by 2012. Cost: a mere 50 bucks for an inmate snitch to chasm a noggin. A few days ago an accused Russian spy said it best, "when I was in prison only then did I feel free, those outside do not know they are in prison." A lot more could be said along these lines, channeling TCM, PGP fucked, cpunks fucked, crypto fucked, anonymizers fucked, Tor fucked, off-shore finance fucked, anonymous payment fucked, privacy fucked, fucking had won by 2000, the fake versions repackaged to commercially fuck citizens by governments, corporations, NGOs and Wikileaks. So Jim Bell is no different than the others except he knows he's in prison on the dole at taxpayer expense rather than at locked up at Lockheed Martin, Intel, MS, IRS and kind. Thanks Jeff, now eat your IRS shit.

This time, he connects, and the Court, sitting in it's ever present omniscience, helps guide Jim to the floor as he implodes:
DISPOSITION: Court finds that violations 1, 2, 3 & 4 are established; Mr. Campbell addresses sanctions and requests the standard range of 5 - 11 months custody; Court imposes 24 months custody w/no supervision to follow upon release;
And, of course, since he will be relased in two years without further supervision, the State needs to be absolutely CERTAIN he won't be causing any further troubles over issues that "don't need airing":
Govt requests mental health counseling - GRANTED;
The lobotomy is scheduled;
Mr. Campbell renews his motion to be allowed to withdraw - GRANTED **Thomas Campbell is permitted to withdraw as counsel for the defendant and is not obligated to act any further on defendant's behalf on any issues before this Court including the filing of a Notice of Appeal of the Judgment on Revocation of Supervised Release entered today.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but still, this is fucked.

JUDGMENT ON REVOCATION OF SUPERVISED RELEASE
Thanks, Greg.
I neglected to say thanks in my reply - bad Alif. Thank you for the PACER-puff Greg.
Sometimes, it helps *not* to stand on a street corner and throw rocks at cop cars.
Pretty much what everyone is likely thinking. While I wrote pretty much the same thing, I *do* get his rage (I'm involved in a>2 year old BS federal case myself, and I also get madder and madder every day) at being the floppy boneless chicken that is thrown about the grounds for the entertainment of those who are mad at Jim for having a lick of sense, and a taste of freedom (he had so heavily paid his price for). I just hope that whenhe gets out, next, he is able to either work *somewhere*, or lacking that, find some way to get by. It's tough having a felony in these post 9/11 days: there is no longer a concept of "done the time, the crime is paid for" - today, a crime is punished by lifetime unemployment (even Walmart won't let you sell sodas if you have a felony behind you. Even 40 years behind you!), as well as lifetime punishments that are unexpected: no more fair access to the courts (any case filed against you, no matter how off the wall or just plain crazy will succeed, and any case you file, no matter how locked-in and unquestionable, will be dismissed at your costs); little to no protection from the police (but plenty of harassment); extreme difficulty in finding housing; a permanent loss of basic rights to self defense (this one I *really* don't get, at least for non-violent offenders - of course, if you've punched that ticket, you're *obviously* violent, right?); the loss of you pretense at picking your leader (no loss there), etc. Really, the *only* upside to having a felony is that you are permanently barred from jury duty. //Alif -- "Never belong to any party, always oppose privileged classes and public plunderers, never lack sympathy with the poor, always remain devoted to the public welfare, never be satisfied with merely printing news, always be drastically independent, never be afraid to attack wrong, whether by predatory plutocracy or predatory poverty." Joseph Pulitzer, 1907 Speech
