Today a man by the name of Troy Gaston was harassed and illegitimately arrested during a peaceful protest. I called into 7th ward offices and the cop on duty made fun of me for calling and then hung up. He’s not in good hands. Please call 3127478220 and demand his release.

The third time I called, another cop on duty told me that in about an hour they’ll know if he has a bond set or if he’s going to court. I’ll follow up on this thread with anything new.

Hey y'all an update! I called back and they said he's going to court tomorrow. I'm not a lawyer, but I want to help. I'm wondering if we can figure out what to do to support Troy, so he doesn't have to deal w this alone. Please share any and all advice !!!!

@ChgoCivilRights reaching out for any advice on how to handle something like this.
