Larry Jones’ column (12/26) indicated that there was a lack of factual information available to the - public concerning the death of George Jackson during the attempted San Quentin prison break of Aug. 21, 1971... Quite contrary to the position expressed by Mr. Jones, . all of the facts surrounding the abortive Jackson prison es- cape are and have been readily available. The truth is however, that the “liberal” press and other media, the Na- tional Lawyers Guild, ‘liberal’ clergymen, and Maoists— yes, Maoists—have been pouring out incendiary rhetoric in; their anxious efforts to attack the American penal system for being unkind to criminals. ; _ ' - Only moments’ following lawyer Steve Bingham’s visit to’ Jackson at San Quentin, brother George pulled a pistol and the break attempt had begun. Approximately 20 min- utes later three white guards and two white convicts were dead, ‘their throats slashed. A fourth officer, although . stabbed: in the throat, niumaged’ to survive. All available evidence to, date indicates.that the two white inmates were killed because they refused to take part in'the break: Jack- son himself was shot from the prison tower as he raced for . a prison wall, leaving behind five corpses... oa San: “Of interest is the fact that with lawyer Bingham, during’ . his visit: to San ‘Quentin. to. see Jackson, was a woman.’ The home address. she gave to San Quentin offi- cials.is the: same 48 the, Berkeley, Calif., Black Panther . ‘Party headquarters; the Angela Davis ‘Defensé Committee, * and ‘the’ Bobby.
