BREAKING: Georgia police shot "Cop City" protestor Manuel Terán 57 times in the first state killing of a climate activist in the US. Official autopsy also shows Terán did not fire a gun which obliterates the police narrative.

Evidence Terán was executed is overwhelming. Image
Georgia police buried the official autopsy of Terán for months until it was forced into the open today by a public records request. The @GBI_GA – the entity "investigating" – clearly tried to craft a cover-up of an apparent police murder and failed. axios.com/2023/04/19/cop…

BREAKING: Below is a thread that explains how @Chevron and Judge Kaplan conspired to disbar me in New York based on false evidence — and why as a last resort I have asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case. My disbarment is a gross injustice. reuters.com/legal/governme…
(2) The groundwork for this miscarriage of justice dates back years and is part of Chevron's avowed "demonize Donziger" (see email below) campaign designed to retaliate against me for helping Indigenous peoples win a historic pollution judgement against the company.
(3) In 2011, @Chevron sued me for $60 billion in the U.S. and steered the case to Judge Kaplan (below), a former tobacco industry lawyer with financial ties to the company. Kaplan himself asked Chevron to file the case during a discovery hearing on a related matter.

BREAKING: Nine international trial monitors — 5 from the U.N. — have now issued two independent reports concluding that Judges Kaplan and Preska denied my right to a fair trial and illegally detained me to help Chevron retaliate over a $9.5b pollution case.

Follow thread.
(2) The latest findings this week were issued by 4 prominent lawyers led by U.S. Ambassador Stephen A. Rapp. Their conclusions follow.

First, the 4 monitors found that the two judges (below) denied my right to a fair trial by structuring the case to achieve a "conviction".
(3) Second, the panel found that Kaplan named a private prosecutor from a Chevron law firm after the charges were rejected by the public prosecutor. Kaplan also named Preska as judge even though she has ties to the Chevron-funded Federalist Society. Both are clearly conflicted.

BREAKING: We made Page 1 of the @WSJ. The article correctly paints Chevron as petty, vindictive, and irrational.

That said, the WSJ and its editing team omit or distort key facts to hide Chevron's corruption of the courts.

Let's go through some of them. (1/10)
(2/10) Six appellate courts around the world—including the Supreme Courts of Ecuador and Canada—have unanimously validated the Ecuador judgement. The WSJ ignored this.
(3/10) Writer @Sara_Randazzo quotes extensively from pro-Chevron U.S. trial judge Lewis Kaplan about an alleged "fraud" in Ecuador. She ignored decisions from 28 other appellate judges in Ecuador and Canada who rejected Kaplan's findings and validated the Ecuador judgement.

(1/6) I'm a human rights lawyer who has in house arrest in the U.S. without trial for 18 months after I helped win a $9.5b pollution judgement against Chevron. #FreeSteven

Just before I was arrested, I gave this interview:
(2/6) In 2011, courts in Ecuador found Chevron guilty of a terrible environmental crime —deliberately dumping 16 billion gallons of cancer-causing oil waste into Indigenous ancestral lands in the Amazon. Thousands have died.

Chevron refused to pay the judgment.
(3/6) Instead, Chevron threatened the peoples it poisoned with a "lifetime of litigation" unless they gave up. It also demanded Ecuador's government sell out its own citizens by illegally "dismissing" the judgement.

(1/7) A few years ago, a Chevron whistleblower quietly left a package at the @AmazonWatch headquarters with no name or return address. Dozens of DVDs were inside.
(2/7) Just prior, courts in Ecuador had found Chevron guilty of one of the worst environmental crimes in history—deliberately dumping 16 billion gallons of toxic oil waste into Indigenous territories in the Amazon.
(3/7) Ordered by those courts to pay $9.5 billion, Chevron sold its assets and fled the country.
