Biography
Michael Akins was a Boston Black Panther arrested at Guido’s Pizza in Boston on January 21, 1969 and booked at police Station No. 4. The contemporary article described the arrest as harassment of the Boston party leadership. The source identifies him as Michael Akins; a later secondary account spells the surname Atkins, which is not adopted as a verified alias. No verdict, sentence, release date or completed custody duration is established.
