Financial Disclosure: No Parole Peltier Association
Dear Supporters:
Please see the
following affidavit regarding the No Parole Peltier Association’s (NPPA)
financial disclosure. The original notarized affidavit can be seen here. Copies of checks,
invoices and receipts can be viewed here.*
It can be
clearly seen that the NPPA’s goal and purpose has nothing to do with money or
funding, only honoring the memory and sacrifice of Jack and Ron and dismantling
the myth and folklore surrounding Leonard Peltier.
Peltier’s
finances have been their dirty little secret since about March, 1977. “All
proceeds benefit Leonard’s defense fund” (Betty Solano), and who else and how
much? Peltier’s trial and
appellate attorneys were paid by the kindness of the American taxpayers. The
vast majority of money raised and spent by Peltier and the LPDOC (LPDC) was on
anything but defense costs and attorneys fees.
So, Leonard, now
it’s your turn for a full financial disclosure.
“In the Spirit
of Coler and Williams”

*A subsequent
typo was noted in the following and attached original affidavit; the 3/18/11
donation to the FBI Memorial Scholarship Fund was listed as $25.00, but it was
actually $50.00. Also, which should have been noted, none of the donations made
in the name of the No Parole Peltier Association were claimed as tax deductible
donations.
