Former Black Panther Party member and political prisoner Kamau Sadiki 
(Freddie Hilton) will appear in Judge Stephanie Manis courtroom on 
Thursday, April 23, 2009 at 9:30 am. Sadiki is seeking a re-trial on 
a murder conviction in 2003. Atlanta Police had closed a case of the 
1971 killing of an Atlanta police officer. In 1999, the FBI in 
pursuit of collaboration in their attempts to recapture Assata 
Shakur, a political exile in Cuba, threatened Sadiki with life in 
prison if he did not assist them. When Sadiki did not comply the FBI 
convinced Atlanta police to re-open the case and charge Sadiki. The 
FBI assisted the Atlanta police and prosecutors in manufacturing 
witnesses (none who actually saw the shooting) against Sadiki. He was 
convicted and sentenced to life in prison 32 years after the incident.
