To Whom it may concern:
Jeffrey Luers is a political prisoner serving a 22 year prison sentence for actions that did not physically threaten, let alone harm anyone.
Prior to his imprisonment, Mr. Luers was a very well-liked community activist in Eugene, Oregon. He was known to law enforcement because of his involvement with forest defense and anti-police brutality activism.
Mr. Luers was arrested in June, 2000, after leaving the scene of a fire at a Romania car dealership in Eugene, Oregon. He was initially charged with three counts of First Degree arson for setting fire to three Sports Utility Vehicles [SUVs] at the car dealership, and later received additional charges of Attempted Arson and Conspiracy to Commit Arson at Tyree Oil Company.
Mr. Luers admits to having committed an act of property destruction at the Romania dealership. The stated purpose of this act was to bring attention to global warming and the increasing environmental crisis facing the world because of it. Mr. Luers took measures to make sure that no one would be injured as a result of his actions [an arson specialist and the Romania Night Watchman later confirmed at the trial this fire did not pose a threat to human beings]. He denies being involved in - or even knowing about - the attempted arson at the Tyree Oil Company. There was no physical evidence presented that tied him to the latter incident. Fingerprints found at the scene of the crime did not match Mr. Luers or those of his co-defendant.
During the course of his trial, statements were made by the police and prosecuting attorney that indicated it was Mr. Luers' political views on trial, not merely his actions. His defense successfully proved that evidence had been tampered with, officers had lied and that the prosecutor had manipulated evidence to get a legal search at his residence.
The defense had the upper hand until the untimely death of Mr. Luers lead attorney, Ken Morrow. This caused the judge to declare a mistrial leading to significant delays, allowing the prosecution to regroup and rethink their strategy.
Perhaps most significantly, the judge threw out the testimony of Mr. Luers expert witness merely because he disagreed with the state's witnesses. The expert witness had done a more thorough investigation of the crime scenes (including taking photos of the burned vehicles that the police did not) than the Eugene Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
In June of 2001, Mr. Luers was convicted of 11 of 13 charges and sentenced to 22 years imprisonment. Under Oregon's Measure 11 mandatory-minimum sentencing guidelines, he does not have the possibility of parole or early release.
The length of this sentence is patently unjust, particularly when compared to those commonly given to people convicted of crimes against persons. For example, Manslaughter 1 carries a 10 year sentence; Attempted Murder, only 7 and-a-half years; Rape 1, 8 years and four months. Clearly, Jeffrey's sentence is vastly disproportionate to the crime of burning three vehicles. A research project sponsored by supporters of Mr. Luers and the Human Rights Commission of the City of Eugene revealed this disparity and prompted the Commission to sign a statement questioning the role Mr. Luers politics may have played in his sentence.
Mr. Luers was given a sentence that would send the message to environmental and social justice activists that even a merely symbolic act of property destruction would now be equated with terrorism and punished more harshly than many crimes against persons. Since his imprisonment, Mr. Luers has been labeled by the FBI and corporate press as an "eco-terrorist." This label has been used by the Oregon Department of Corrections to justify placing Mr. Luers at Security Threat Group status Ð a designation typically reserved for white supremacists and gang members.
During these difficult times, we must work diligently to ensure that the basic civil rights of everyone are equally protected and upheld. We cannot tolerate the criminalization of dissent or repression against activists, even if we may not agree with their tactics.
Mr. Luers is a sincere young man, and has a tremendous amount to offer the community. We feel that it would be an injustice to keep him locked up during the most precious years of his life. He has stated that, if released, he would continue to be active in efforts to protect the environment, but would avoid activities that would lead him back to prison.
In light of Mr. Luers stated political beliefs and the unusual length of his sentence, we recognize him as a political prisoner. We also support his appeal process, and call for a review of his sentence that would lead to a reduction in time served.
