ERIN ABBOTT UPDATED INFO

--------------------

 

ODI crewmember and fallen comrade Erin Abbott remains under armed guard at

Olympic Memorial Hospital in Port Angeles, Washington. She is in " stable "

condition, with a broken shoulder, possible fractured ribs and reported lung

injury. Seattle media report that she will be kept at the hospital at least

through the weekend.

 

KING-5 television conducted a telephone interview with Erin this evening.

She sounded tired, and admitted that she was still in pain. The interview

ended when Coast Guard personnel took her phone away from her. All activists

on scene here in Sekiu remain outraged at the brutalization she suffered at

the hands of the US Coast Guard.

 

Please keep Erin in your thoughts- those of here in Sekiu think of her 24

hours a day, and hope that she will be allowed to be visited by her comrades

very soon. She has been unable to be visited by anyone since being run down

by a Coast Guard ship on the open sea.
