Biography

Mickey J. Dunn was an Oakland member of the Industrial Workers of the World convicted under California's Criminal Syndicalism Act and sentenced to five years. He was confined at San Quentin State Prison from November 1921 until January 1926 as prisoner number 35564.

This was a state prosecution. An earlier version of this record classified it as a federal Espionage or Sedition Act case.

The recorded span of roughly four years and two months is calculated from month-only dates rather than from any statement of time served. The exact days of arrest, conviction, sentencing, admission and release are unresolved, as are his vital dates and any appeal history.

Case

Charges: California Criminal Syndicalism Act prosecution (Statutes of 1919, ch. 188), arising from Industrial Workers of the World activity. Not a federal Espionage or Sedition Act case.

Released: January 1926
Sentence: Five years. Confined at San Quentin State Prison from November 1921 until January 1926 as prisoner number 35564. Both dates are month-only, so the span of roughly four years and two months is calculated rather than documented.
Convicted: Yes — the record states a sentence received and a term served at San Quentin State Prison.
Institution State: California
