Ottawa Movement Defense – Calling for Court Support

Roger was denied bail previously, and he and his lawyers are now working to prepare for a bail review hearing, which will take place on Friday, July 30th.   The specific courtroom has not been determined yet, but we’ll send that information out as soon as it is confirmed.

WE ARE CALLING ON SUPPORTERS TO FILL THE COURTROOM ON JULY 30TH.

Roger Clement Bail Review Hearing: Friday, July 30th, all day, Courtroom TBA

Solidarity With Our Friends Who Are Not Free!

Statement to Supporters from Matt and Roger

We would like to thank everyone for their support. It’s much appreciated, much needed, and makes in being in prison more bearable. Although adjusting to life in prison is not easy, everything is more or less alright for now.

Of course, we are both hoping to get out on bail. Getting bail is currently what we are focused on, and this should be the priority for folks supporting us on the outside.

Please remember that right now we don’t want supporters talking to the media or making public comments about us or our case.

If you’d like to know details on how to best support us at this time, contact Ottawa Movement Defense at ottawamovementdefense@gmail.com

In solidarity,

Matt Morgan-Brown, Roger Clement

Sending Letters of Support to the J18 Defendants

Matt and Roger are still being detained at Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre, where they are only allowed two short visits per week. This cuts them off from their wide support networks during this difficult time as they are facing serious charges.

We encourage you to write letters of support to them. Please tell them that you are with them and support their immediate release.

Their mailing addresses are:

Joseph Roger Clement
Ottawa Carleton Detention Centre

Matthew Morgan-Brown
Ottawa Carleton Detention Centre
2244 Innes Road
