Liberty activist Kurt Hoffman was sentenced to 6 months in jail after Keene District Court Justice Edward Burke cited Mr. him for contempt. More specifically, Mr. Hoffman demanded that the Justice Burke at least say ‘please’ in lieu of commanding individuals rise upon his entrance to the court. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Hoffman was removed from the courtroom and assaulted by officer Eli Rivera behind closed doors. Liberty activists then proceed to hold a candle light vigil in front of Eli Rivera’s home, enraging the officer further.
In addition, there are several reports that since the initial assault, Mr. Hoffman’s conditioned has continue to worsen. As such, please consider bidding on my handcrafted liberty necklace featuring a Free State porcupine on one side and the Gadsden rattlesnake on the obverse. All proceeds will be donated to Mr. Hoffman’s family who are now without his income.
