The COINTELPRO Files: Vincent Bridges and Co. (3 of 22)

A selection of historic documents.
The document on the top left is a legal bill we received from our attorney in Florida who handled the copyright issue back in 2002 when Vincent Bridges stole our material and attempted to put a former group member up to claiming ownership. A legal agreement was reached out of court. It cost us about a thousand dollars but during the process, we met some very interesting legal people who took quite an interest in the situation. The legal opinion of the four attorneys we dealt with (one of whom is quite well known in the region, but who I cannot name), was that this was a very typical situation in the U.S. where you can only get as much justice as you can pay for. Fortunately, the attorney who said this was a friend of a friend and wasn't charging us anything. Because there was an out of court agreement, we cannot discuss any details in public. This certainly hampers our ability to defend ourselves against the many defamatory lies of Vincent Bridges and gang, but that's just the way it is.
