Biography
One of the 'Smyrna 7' at the Delaware Correctional Center who, per the defense committee in The Black Panther Vol. 15 no.29 (1976), were forced to plead guilty to escape charges after being denied the right to present their defense.
The Smyrna Seven defense committee’s October 1976 letter individually names Curtis Jordan among four men it says were forced to plead guilty to escape-related charges after being denied an opportunity to present their defense. It describes the prosecution as retaliation for prisoners’ political beliefs and efforts to expose prison conditions.
