Update: Freedom Fighters Arrested at Coutts on Feb. 14, 2022
Four men have been held in jail, bail denied, since February 14. Christopher Carbert, Christopher Lysak,
Jerry Morin, and Anthony Olienick.
Another nine men and women were released on bail, but the charges continue to hang over them.
Ursula Allred, Luke Berk, Evan Colenutt, Johnson Law, Justin Martin, Jaclyn Martin, Eastin Oler, Joanne
Person, Janx Zaremba.
We can now enter the Lethbridge courtrooms (320 – 4 St. South; ph. 403-381-5223) to witness court
proceedings. Our support is important for the accused. It also lets the justice system know we are
watching them, and that we want justice for these men and women.
June Court Dates - Delays and Adjournments
Numerous court dates in June resulted in adjournment to a later date. Most of the delays and adjournments have
been caused by the withholding of “evidence”.
o Disclosure of Search Warrant: As of June 10, lawyers were still not able to proceed because Judge
K.R. Ailsby had still not released the disclosure of the search search warrant used to arrest 13
people on February 14. Apparently, judges can seal search warrants when the warrants are based
on information obtained by such things as undercover operatives, informants, or wire taps.
o Data Dump by Police: The police finally released 35 GB of data (3,400 files) on June 9. Court
proceedings therefore have to be delayed to allow lawyers time to view the data.
Upcoming Court Dates
The court dates in July may be important. Come out and support the freedom fighters.
