On the 19th of October, Cara and Celeste were arrested accused of green 638 minks from a fur farm. They are facing an array of charges including eco-terrorism and burglary. This case is continuously being updated, so we will be keeping you informed as things evolve.
For now, there are two main things you can do to support our two incarcerated comrades.
Firstly, you can donate to their bail and legal fees fundraiser. The bail has been set to 150k USD each, and their support group estimates legal fees to reach up to 100k, so they are trying to put together 400k USD. This is a huge amount of money, so if you can donate, that would be amazing, but if you can organise a fundraising event, screening, food share or otherwise any other form of fundraising that raises the profile around your community, that would be extremely beneficial.
For donations, please head to Philly ABC’s link here:

Secondly, you can write letters. We are still working out the best method to get love to Celeste, but Cara has a prison address you can use to send your love. Please, DO NOT TALK about the case. DO NOT TALK ABOUT ANYTHING ILLEGAL! Instead, write to Cara about their interests, which include anti monogamy, family abolition, relationship anarchy, chess, memes, crafting, bike trips and collective living projects.
Their address is:
Cara Mitrano
0034248
Northumberland County Jail
670 Northumberland County Drive
Coal Township, PA 17866
Writing restrictions are as follows:
- Handwritten only, black or blue ink (no coloured pens)
- Hand drawn pictures are unlikely to get through. No zines, stickers cards or articles as they will not get through either.
- Pictures are welcome, but only developed (not printed). Max of 10 per person.
We are organising a limited drop of t-shirts and prints to raise funds for our comrades. Keep an eye on our posts and as soon as we have them ready we will publish about it!
Support prisoners everywhere, and today, support the Northumberland 2!
SOLIDARITY IS OUR BIGGEST WEAPON.
