Y-12 protester temporarily released for funeral; officials don’t comment on whether she returned to

Source: Oak Ridge Today

U.S. and Georgia officials did not respond to requests for comment on Tuesday and Wednesday on whether peace protester Megan Rice, who has been convicted of destroying government property at the Y-12 National Security Complex, returned to prison in the Peach State this week after a five-day release to attend the funeral of her brother-in-law in New York.

“I assume she reported, or we’d have heard from someone trying to locate her,” Hutchison said in a Tuesday evening e-mail. “I know she was returning to Atlanta last night en route to Ocilla. That’s the last I heard.”

The U.S. Marshals Service in Knoxville did not respond to requests for comment this week and neither did the Georgia Department of Corrections.

Rice was ordered to voluntarily report back to the Irwin County Detention Center on July 29.

Because of this treatment, Chong started to starve and began to hallucinate. Chong told a news conference on Tuesday, “It was an accident, a really bad, horrible accident. I had to recycle my own urine. I had to do what I had to do to survive.”

... and disappeared to Canada that same night. The wedding was the last time I saw him for 35 years. Did I mention it was 1966 or thereabouts?

You know, not everybody plans their exit as poorly as Snowden.
