Biography

Nicole Rogers was held at Onondaga County Jail, where she went on a hunger strike with Jeffrey Watkins.

AnimalPeople April 1997 individually reports Nicole Rogers was confined with Jeffrey Watkins at Onondaga County Jail and on the twelfth day of their jail hunger strike. It reports a sixty-day sentence for chaining herself to a fur-store security gate, associated with Syracuse Animal Defense League activism. The sustained actual jail confinement, not the imposed sentence alone, meets the multi-day custody requirement. Admission is known only to 1997 YEAR; January1 is a storage placeholder. No actual discharge or completed sixty-day total is asserted, and no involvement in the separate bombing story is alleged.
