We hereby loan our name to the Leonard Peltier Is Innocent petition. This petition will be used to bring awareness to the plight of Leonard Peltier.

We, the undersigned, hereby urge the U.S. President to look into the case of Leonard Peltier. There is sufficient evidence that this Anishinabe/Lakota human rights activist is innocent. In court, the prosecuting attorney admitted that neither the U.S. government nor the FBI have any idea who killed FBI agents Coler and Williams; and the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals decided that the FBI had coerced witnesses, committed perjury, fabricated false evidence, and withheld crucial evidence proving Leonard Peltier's innocence.
We also urge the U.S. Senate / Congress to start hearings into the misconduct of the FBI in thisparticular case. After all, 55 Congress members have already asked former President Clinton to grant Peltier executive clemency. Furthermore, the Belgian and European Parliaments have each adopted two resolutions with these same demands.
