 rt-for-brian/\n\nUPDATE: Brian's trial concluded on Tuesday May 13 and the
  verdict was NOT GUILTY of the felony charge\, not guilty of misdemeanor d
 isorderly conduct\, and guilty of trespassing. WE WILL STILL BE OUTSIDE TH
 E COURTHOUSE ON WEDNESDAY MORNING to protest the misuse of taxpayer funds 
 from the state putting peaceful activists through trials. If possible\, pl
 ease wear green to show support!\n\nOn April 20 2024\, 21 courageous rebel
 s were arrested at Hanscom Field for protesting the proposed expansion of 
 the private jet facilities. If this development is completed\, it could ca
 ncel out 70% of all climate gains from solar photovoltaics in the state of
  Massachusetts. It's a devastating carbon bomb in the making. The arrestee
 s have been put through a long process of court hearings and some of them 
 are pushing through to an unprecedented series of trials for XR Boston.\n 
 \nThe judge has decided to split up the trials so each individual defendan
 t is tried alone. After a year in the legal process\, the first trial is c
 oming up! Our first defendant is XR Boston's own Brian!\n\n**Join us on We
 dnesday May 14 at the Concord District Courthouse to fill the courtroom wi
 th supporters! The trial starts at 9 am.** We will sit together in the cou
 rtroom and bear witness to an exciting climate trial. We ask that everyone
  dress in professional attire and keep a respectful attitude. Please do no
 t wear shirts with slogans or political messages. If possible\, please wea
 r green to show support!\n\n**No signs or banners - This is a vigil\, not 
 a rally.** Phone use is not allowed in the courtroom. The trial length is 
 unknown\, but feel free to leave when you need.\n\nTo join a **carpool** f
