Christopher "Naeem" Trotter and John "Balagoon" Cole, known as the 'Pendleton 2', are political prisoners with over 40 years in custody due to a rebellion in 1985. This was sparked when they defended Lincoln "Lokmar" Love from a violent attack by prison guards, allegedly affiliated with a white supremacist group. Their actions led to lengthy sentences for both men, despite no fatalities from the situation. As Trotter's upcoming clemency hearing approaches, advocates continue to rally for their release, emphasizing the need for justice and awareness about their plight.
The public has rallied behind Christopher Trotter and John Cole, known as 'the Pendleton 2,' fighting for their release after decades in prison for political actions.
Trotter and Cole received staggeringly long sentences after defending a fellow inmate from what they claim was a brutal, racially charged attack by prison guards.
