The Jan 6th traitors were out immediately, but I'll be grateful for what we have.

It's floriduh! What did you expect?

They wasted no time letting the Jan 6 people out

the medical negligence hurts my heart—we all know it’s not just one man, it’s everyone in the prison system experiencing the same abuse.

I hope Peltier is able to have comfort & peace with his people.

Should have been released immediately.

It is a shame this couldn’t have happened a long time ago. He is now 80 and has health issues. At least he will get to be with family in the end.

Something good for a fucking change

doomforpresident.bsky.social•106 days ago

Took long enough.

fizzlebah.bsky.social•106 days ago

I would like to believe the delay was about his safety more than anything else.

stevenlandgraf.com•106 days ago

His sentence was commuted to indefinite house arrest, so there was likely going to be some delay while that arrangement was set up.

libraryanna.bsky.social•106 days ago

That arrangement can be set up in a day.

stevenlandgraf.com•106 days ago

He's 80, has kidney disease and diabetes, is nearly blind, and needed to be carefully moved from prison in FL to a residence in ND that was ready to monitor him, care for him, and have the infrastructure needed to accommodate his conditions. Not an expert, but I think that requires >24 hrs.

anniewherebuthere.bsky.social•106 days ago

It doesn’t require weeks
