AR-News: Update on Foie Gras Open Rescue Arrest.

[Ryan Noah Shapiro]

As many of you know, on Friday, April 22, Sarahjane Blum, media 
spokesperson for GourmetCruelty.com, was arrested after screening the 
video "Delicacy of Despair: Behind the Closed Doors of the Foie Gras 
Industry" at a conference at Syracuse University. She was charged with 
felony burglary for the open rescue of ducks from the Hudson Valley 
Foie Gras factory farm in Liberty, New York, and was released the next 
day on bail.

Sarahjane has now retained an attorney and has appeared at a 
preliminary hearing. The judge granted a continuance until Sarahjane's 
graduate school semester is completed. The next court date is scheduled 
for June 8.

Donations to assist Sarahjane and GourmetCruelty.com with legal fees 
are greatly appreciated. Please send contributions to:

during this process.
