Biography
Carter Cortelyou was individually named among twelve people who went to jail after the December 3, 1984 anti-nuclear blockade at Williams International in Michigan. The court demanded a promise not to return; compulsory Salvation Army work was a separate alternative taken by David Braun, not this defendant. The January 23 report explicitly names Carter Cortelyou among five physically released January 3, 1985 pending appeal. December 3 is the arrest date; the text does not separately print the court/remand day, so no exact first admission or thirty-one-day counter is guessed.
