Free Monika Schaefer!

MONIKA SCHAEFER SENT TO MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON IN GERMANY & TOLD :"IF YOU WANTED TO STAY FREE YOU SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN CANADA

On January 3, Monika Schaefer was arrested at a court in Munich where she was attending the trial of lawyer Sylvia Stolz, who was being charged for comments she made in Switzerland -- that's right, another country -- several years ago. Monika was taken away in handcuffs and sent to a maximum security prison,

Her brother Alfred reports: "Monika Schaefer was arrested on January 3 2018  while attending, as an observer, the bizarre inquisition hearings against the courageous Sylvia Stolz. This "trial" was for illegal words that Sylvia Stolz had spoken at the "Anti Censorship Coalition" (AZK) in Switzerland in 2012.  About 45 minutes into the inquisition the "State Prosecutor"  called for a surprise break, which was then used to arrest my courageous sister Monika. The only thing Monika did was watch quietly as the inquisition was dealing with Sylvia Stolz.  These people had us under close observation and figured it was a good opportunity to demonstrate their "power", and intimidate us. 

A person identified as a "State Prosecutor" accompanied by three heavily armed thugs handcuffed Monika and dragged her away. When my sister protested that she is a free person from Canada and had done nothing wrong, the "State Prosecutor" told her: "If you wanted to stay free you should have stayed in Canada". 

Now they have moved Monika Schaefer to the high security prison in Munich and will keep her there indefinitely. Monika is accused of making an apology to her own dear mother. The title of the video was "Sorry Mom, I was wrong about the Holocaust". 

A German lawyer has been retained to help Monika.
