The imprisoned Native American activist Leonard Peltier has been denied parole again. The US Parole Commission told the
sixty-four-year-old Peltier on Friday that his release would depreciate the seriousness of [his] offenses and promote disrespect for the law. It was Peltiers first full parole hearing in fifteen
years, and he will not be eligible for parole again until July 2024, at the age of seventy-nine. We speak with Eric Seitz, Leonard Peltiers attorney.
