And no charges were ever filed? Being 1971, was this part of the protests for Vietnam?
“And no charges were ever filed? Being 1971, was this part of the protests for Vietnam?”
There must have been some (many?) charges filed but I know that for many such as myself no charges were filed, after enlisting in the army a few months later I used my free JAG services to check it out for myself to see if I had missed something over the (five?) days of total internment (I was finally released from a DC city jail), but no, I had not been charged, I had been questioned by the FBI and offered release if I answered questions (that was about the second or third day of internment).
People were sent all over the place, I heard that 3000 were held in a prison in Virginia.
Yes, it was a Vietnam protest.
