Educate People About Chelsea’s Case and the Unjust Grand Jury Process.

Chelsea has explained in detail why she is opposed to the grand jury process in general, the history of the grand jury process and why it should be abolished in a few different documents over the last few months.

The most recent, and shortest of them, she wrote recently for the Seventh Annual Aaron Swartz Day & International Hackathon event at the Internet Archive in San Francisco.

Chelsea also wrote a letter to Judge Trenga with a detailed explanation.

Grand jury resister Katie Yow’s support website also provides many useful explainers.
