Nick Yarris story
Although my life’s story holds so much, the relevant parts for this site are as follows:On Dec. 20th,1981 I was stopped in the city of Chester, PA. for a traffic citation by patrolman Benjamin Wright. The unfortunate events that unfolded in a matter of seconds were began by this officer placing his restraining hand on my shoulder as I attempted to stand up out of the car I was in. It precipitated his grabbing me by the arm and a scuffle then ensued as he attempted to overpower a terrified 20 year old man that I was at the time. Enraged and heated from the accidental discharge of his revolver into the ground, this offer reacted by over blowing the incident way out of proportion. Just a few days before Christmas 1981 and I wind up being charged with attempted murder and kidnapping of a police officer. Although it would take a Jury less than an hour of deliberation to clear me of all charges, the damage had already been done.For while I was thrown into prison for attempted murder, it was the brutality of prison, of being placed immediately in solitary confinement, and told that I faced LIFE IN PRISON for the charges placed on me, that my life fell apart. It was because of the desperation I was driven to, to conceive of any way out of this initial nightmare, that my TRUE “Nightmare” began.check out Nick’s site for a classic case of american terrorism.
