On 26 Apr 2001, Keith Henson was convicted of "interfering with a religion". His crimes include typing the word "Cruise missile" referring to Tom Cruise. He had been on the run since then because of death threats from Scientologists. He was picked up on (2/2/07) and now is finally released.
Keith Henson served 4 months of a 6-month sentence, most of it in solitary. A hearing in early July should have freed him on appeal, but the judge changed his mind in the 2-1/2 weeks it took to transport him from jail to do what the judge had first said would free him on his "own recognizance," sign an extradition waiver.
Here is a comment from Keith's wife Arel:
"Keith is still on probation and will be for another 2-2/3 years. His probation terms are on the Riverside County court site, with Keith Henson as the defendant name. He may not annoy $cientologists."
Regardless..........
CONGRATULATIONS and WELCOME HOME to Keith Henson!
