A brief update on accused ALF / ELF prisoner Justin Solondz

The man accused of participating in two arsons – one of them claimed by the Animal Liberation Front – pleaded not guilty to helping set fire to the University of Washington Center for Urban Horticulture. It was his first court appearance in the US since being extradited from China, where he was apprehended after spending years as a fugitive.

It is not clear when Solondz will appear in court to answer for the Animal Liberation Front-claimed arson charges. He has been charged with releasing wild horses and helping set fire to a BLM wild horse corral in Susanville, CA, in 2001.

Solondz is the latest fugitive apprehended as part of the FBI sweep dubbed the “Green Scare” case.

More updates will be posted as they come in.
