Biography

Ed Frey was an attorney and organizer of Santa Cruz's PeaceCamp2010 protest against restrictions on sleeping outdoors. He was convicted of unlawful lodging and sentenced June 10, 2011 to six months, with immediate remand. He returned home June 24 on bail pending appeal. Later 2012 house arrest is separate from this jail interval.

2010s audit verified October 12, 2026: Contemporary reporting by Becky Johnson, posted by Robert Norse specifies June 10 sentencing and immediate remand, and that Frey returned home on Friday afternoon, June 24, 2011. These replace the June month placeholders. The note's June 12 typo is contradicted by the detailed report. Wrong FCI Allenwood linkage was cleared; the source identifies Rountree in Watsonville. Later 2012 house arrest is a separate phase; the initial 2010 protest arrest day remains unknown.
