René González:
My brother
never gave up
 • Dear friends:
I am breaking the silence which has
been my refuge during these days. I hope you will
understand the delay and forgive me for it. It has
not been in any way easy to confront the loss of my
brother. Far less so in these conditions. Expecting
the outcome has not lessened the blow.

Thank you for your messages of
encouragement, which have made me feel accompanied
in these special circumstances. They have animated
me in the return to the struggle, to which the
spirit and memory of Roberto call me. He never gave
up; those of us who remain in the debt to honor his
memory will not do so.
For me, who became aware of my own existence
alongside him and who shared so many things with him,
it will always be a motive for pride to be able to
say that I was his brother.
For all of you, all my gratitude and an embrace.
René González Sehwerert, June 26,
2012
(Editor’s Note.—Roberto González, an
eminent lawyer who devoted the last years of his
life to the cause for the liberation of his brother
René and the other four Cuban anti-terrorists who
are serving unjust sentences in the U.S., died in
Havana on June 22, a victim of cancer.) •

in Marianna,
Florida prison
Dear Friends,
I am in the prison of my destination,
where René's presence of peace, respect, friendship,
dedication to study and physical exercise still
lingers.
Yes, it is the medium security
prison in Mariana, Florida.

Message from
Antonio Guerrero
DEAR participants in the 3rd International Youth
Solidarity Conference:
When you read this country’s press
or watch some of its TV channels, you wonder why
there has never been any mention of our case.

Statement by Antonio, Ramón, and
Fernando
We will
continue until the final victory
Dear brother and sisters of Cuba and the world:
We have already served more than 11 years in
prison and there is still no justice at any level of
the U.S. legal system. Three of us have been
transferred to the Miami Court to be re-sentenced in
compliance with a ruling by the Eleventh Circuit
Court of Appeals, which determined that our
sentences had been erroneously imposed. |
