Jamil Al-Amin be transferred back to the state of Georgia and out of federal custody

March 10, 1945 and recently celebrated a birthday. Hugo Pinell immigrated to the United States
with his mother and grandmother in 1957 when he was just 12 years old. He would
grow up and later join the movements for justice and equality of his day. Hugo

could bridge the gap between different ethnic groups and made it difficult for
the prisons to play ethnic inmate groups against each other.

years. Supporters say Hugo has suffered extreme sensory deprivation and the
resulting psychological damage the torture has on human beings. Yogi as Hugo
Pinell is known by friends, recently had a contact visit for the first time in
