For being Daniel McGowan...

Not content with keeping ELF activist Daniel McGowan locked up for 7 years for arson, the cops in the States had to have one more stab at the animal rights campaigner - this time for writing a blog post on the Huffington Post website at the beginning of the month. He wrote about his time in the experimental new Communications Management Unit, that some folk lovingly call "Little Guantanamo".

He was re-released on Friday 5th after his lawyers mentioned that his rights were being infringed. He was, however, forced to sign a document which states "writing articles, appearing in any type of television or media outlets, news reports and/or documentaries without prior BOP approval is strictly prohibited." If he breaks this amicable agreement he will be sent back to the jail. Hail the land of the free.
