"Can Philly listees confirm an e-bulletin just put out by _The
Internationalist_ in Chapel Hill announcing that 450 demonstrators
("nonviolent activists") have been arrested and charged, with bail set at
$15,000 and a "slow-down" processing in effect? _The Internationalist_ also
says there are reports of brutality, isolation, and withholding of
medication from prisoners at both of the two jails where they're being
held."
I can't speak for the treatment in the jails, but yes, they have certainly
arrested that many people, perhaps more, and in some instances have set bail
at $50,000 for misdemeanor offenses.
