Geoffrey is an intensely outspoken anti-war activist who, like over 1,800 others, was arrested during the Republican National Convention in 2004. His last arrest, in August 2004, was ostensibly for speaking on a bullhorn in Union Square Park without a permit. He's currently on trial in a consolidated case which comprises a laundry list of demonstrably false charges stemming from his anti-war activities. If convicted, Geoffrey could be imprisoned for four years.
Despite the peril he's in, Geoffrey staged a protest right below District Attorney Robert Morgenthau's office calling the NYPD "treasonous" for its campaign of politically tinged arrests.
