"There is a heavy police presence with police dogs and doing so would land us in the pokey for kidnapping and trespassing charges among others."
I do realise you are committed and wish to help BUT get arrested!!
DO something stop just talking about it. How many of you are there? you must outnumber the police. I cannot imaging they will be very motivated to stop you. While they are tied up arresting some, others will get past.
GO IN AND GET HER OUT

Would you want to be charged with kidnapping? Interesting that you want someone else to face those charges, but you yourself cannot.

You'd be surprised how committed police officers are to the government, the establishment, and the status quo. They tend to have very positive attitudes toward government (being government employees) and the "democratic process." They probably think that they are serving their public duty by letting the State kill this disabled woman. The officers probably say to themselves: "Who would want to live like that anyway." People can justify any evil in the end.

Talk is cheap. Why don't you come to the vigil if you're so "concerned"?

This is along the lines of what I was thinking. Except I think I would attempt to have the older more fragile persons up front telling the cops, "We're taking her out of here right now. Arrest us if you would but think about your mother/sister being in her place before you act."
I'm betting there would be hesitation if not full ignorance of those present in at least half of the officers.
