TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- It had been weeks
since anyone had heard from Sherry P. Jackson, the former IRS
agent who studied federal income tax history and law, and
transformed into an outspoken anti-income tax activist. But under
the federal government’s relatively new “tax-defier”
program, she was essentially convicted
and imprisoned for her beliefs, her supporters believe.
Sherry’s last known contact with family
from prison had been Dec.17, 2009. The 47-year-old mother of two
said that she had experienced strange health problems in prison
before contact was lost; therefore her husband of 22 years, Colin,
was especially concerned for Sherry when he hadn’t heard from
her.
But Colin was happy to inform this
reporter that he finally heard from Sherry on the evening of Jan.
6. During the holidays the well-known words “silent night” took on
a whole new meaning for Colin.
“The cruelty of this type of activity to
Sherry and her family, especially at Christmastime, [was] beyond
comprehension and despicable,” a friend recently wrote in a letter
to AMERICAN FREE PRESS during the holiday “freeze” on Sherry’s
phone calls.
Meanwhile, Sherry was quietly moved from
the Coleman, Fla. prison to another federal pen near Tallahassee, the
capital of Florida.
Colin understands that federal officials
moved her because she “may” have contacted the press, which could
violate a gag order in terms of media. But observers close to her
maintain she did not contact the press.
Sherry Jackson, whose
inmate number is 59085-019, is now at the Federal Correction
Institution (FCI) in Tallahassee. Her
projected release is Aug. 8, 2011. Tune in to RBN on Saturday to
learn much more. To contact the host email truthhound2@yahoo.com
