[Pnews] A historic Victory: Russell Maroon Shoatz is coming home

[Prisoner News]

Hello Friends of Maroon,
Thank you for signing the letter to urge Judge Kai Scott to reconsider 
her denial of compassionate release for Russell Maroon Shoatz. Thanks to 
your support, Russell "Maroon" Shoatz has been granted a compassionate 
release by Judge Kai Scott, today, October 25th, 2021.
Maroon has been imprisoned for over 49 years and now suffers rapidly 
deteriorating health due to stage 4 colorectal cancer. His condition is 
terminal, and now requires palliative care that involves parenteral 
nutrition through IV, which the PA DOC has neglected to provide.
Effective immediately, Maroon will be transferred from SCI Dallas to 
emergency care at an outside hospital. They will evaluate his current 
state of health and provide the necessary assessments to begin home 
hospice care.
This concludes a decades long campaign and is a major victory for the 
abolitionist movement. We are grateful for the diligent work of Maroon's 
family, the Abolitionist Law Center, Reed Smith, and countless friends 
and supporters.
In love, in prayer, in solidarity!
