DC jail question

[Max B. Sawicky]

I called the number that was posted earlier
to see if Henwood was languishing in some
dungeon.  The problem is if those arrested
give their name as John/Jane Doe, the police
can't tell you if they are in there. In any
case, the cop told me nobody was being held
any more.  Take it for what it's worth. Even
if they had someone, it is not obvious that
a) they would tell you, or b) the person
answering the phone would know.

Subject: DC jail question

Anyone have any suggestions?  We housed a couple of protestors for the IMF
demonstrations over the weekend, but we haven't see one of them since Sunday
night.  We think he was probably arrested on Monday, but we're concerned
because his affinity group had a communications person (someone who was
going
to avoid arrest) who would call designated contacts--in this case us and his
partner--if he was arrested.  Neither of us has been called, he hasn't
surfaced, and we still have all of his stuff.   So we're worried.  Anyone
(recently out of jail or otherwise) have any thoughts or information on
progress in releasing the protestors?
