Friends,
There has already been a lot of media coverage on the appeal decision in Jeff's case. Below is an example from the Register-Guard in Eugene, Oregon.

Thank you to those that have emailed us congratulatory messages - it is greatly appreciated and we will be passing them on to Jeff. Please also write to Jeff if you can and let him know we will be here fighting for him until he is Free!

In addition, fundraising is critical right now as well, to cover legal costs, so please help if you can - options for donating are available here: http://freefreenow.org/donate.html

Also, if anyone is interested in reading the court document it is available online here: http://www.publications.ojd.state.or.us/A115208.htm

Thank you all so much!!
