Biography

Cassimer Urban Jr. was individually identified as a White House anti-nuclear vigiler arrested in July 1984 for resting beside a protest sign. The January 1985 account describes three and one-half months of court-ordered psychiatric confinement before he was declared competent, acquitted and freed. This is actual coerced confinement, not a medical diagnosis inferred by the database. The printed spelling and suffix are retained; no exact hospital-admission or physical-release date, birth date or diagnostic label is supplied.
