The Springfield Federal Bureau of Prisons medical staff confirms that they are unable to help Leonard Peltier at the Springfield Medical Facility.

Leonard Peltier was taken to meet with Federal Bureau of Prisons medical personnel this morning. From 7:55 AM to about 8:30 AM today (March 16, 1999 ) Bureau of Prisons Springfield Doctor Thomas Collins and Springfield administrator McDermott spoke to prisoner Leonard Peltier by way of a video conferencing phone from the Springfield Medical Facility. Director of the Leavenworth Prison Medical Facility, Dr. Hill and Doctors Jackson and Thrapp were also present..

Doctor Collins was the one who did Leonard’s two surgeries at Springfield MO in 1996. He told everyone present that there was nothing they could do to relieve Leonard’s pain and that they could do nothing more to help his medical condition at Springfield. This action by the BOP supports Leonard’s position. It is now more important than ever that we work to have Leonard treated by Doctor Keller or any other qualified specialist at the Mayo Clinic.

Please continue contacting your congress people, the Federal Bureau of Prisons the Deputy Attorney General and the President of the United States.
