Biography
George Mason Murray was the Black Panther Party’s minister of education and an English instructor at San Francisco State College. His suspension in 1968 helped precipitate the student strike for ethnic studies. In 1969 he was jailed on a probation-violation allegation after police found a gun in his car. At the beginning of July his lawyer discussed Murray’s time in county jail and probation conditions restricting his political activities.
The FoundSF history documents Murray’s actual release after his 1969 county-jail confinement. The approximate time served does not supply a discharge day or a measured custody total.
