RCFP To Alabama Court: Rescind Order Keeping Roger Shuler In Prison

Carol Shuler updates the saga of the unconstitutional incarceration of Legal Schnauzer blogger Roger Shuler:

So many organizations have stepped forward to lend their support to Legal Schnauzer’s ongoing fight for justice against this travesty against our constitutional rights and civil liberties. One of those groups is the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press (RCFP) based in Washington, D.C. The RCFP describe themselves on their website as: A nonprofit association dedicated to providing free legal assistance to journalists since 1970.

This outstanding organization, the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press (RCFP) in Washington D.C., sent a letter to the court on Nov. 6 in Shelby County, Alabama, outlining the unconstitutionality of the underlying Riley/Duke alleged defamation case and in support of Roger Shuler & Legal Schnauzer’s First Amendment case.
