Irish political refugee Pol Brennan is once again in prison after being stopped at a Border Patrol check point over 100 miles from the Mexican border. He is currently being held in isolation in a Los Fresnos jail in Texas.
What was a misunderstanding over an out of date work authorization document turned into the resurgence of an old outdated Deportation order against Pol.
Pol was an Irish political activist in a different life and a different time, and has lived here in the US since around 1984 Pol is not undocumented, after his extradition case was dropped in October 2000, he was granted the right to remain in the US where he has been living and working ever since.
Please sign this petition Give Pol and his family a chance of a peaceful life free from persecution Pol poses no national security threat - he is a hard working man who found a new love and a new life here in the US. He is fighting for this life against faceless bureaucracy and needs our help.
To: Homeland Security, US Elected Representatives.
PETITION IN SUPPORT OF POL BRENNAN
WE REQUEST THAT HOMELAND SECURITY DROP ITS OPPOSITION TO BAIL FOR POL BRENNAN (AGE 55) AND ALLOW HIM TO FIGHT HIS CASE IN A FAIRER MANNER.
CONTRARY TO BELIEF HE IS NOT A FLIGHT RISK AND INTENDS TO PERSUE HIS CASE THROUGH THE COURTS IN A LEGAL MANNER AND RESPECT THE AUTHORITY OF THE COURT,
Pol Brennan is a 53 years Irish political refugee who successfully fought an extradition attempt from the British Government in 1993.
He spent seven years in U.S. Custody as Britain sought his extradition. Britain abandoned its efforts in October 2000.
Pol Brennan has since lived and worked openly in the San Francisco Bay area while waiting to hear if his political asylum application has been approved.
He has lived in the US since 1984 and has proven during that time he is a valued hard working man who has made a new life for himself here in the US.
He is no national security threat ‘Let him have the chance of a normal life it is the humane thing to do.
