"we are all we have" | FreeDes.net benefit shirt

"This is far from over" is what we wrote on March 8, 2026 when our friend Des and 8 other people were convicted of “corruptly concealing a document or record.” He and his wife, Maricela Rueda, were also convicted of “conspiracy to conceal documents.” The documents in question were a box of zines—political pamphlets, primarily written in the 2010s by anarchists. Prosecutors alleged that these nefarious essays were evidence of his wife’s membership in an “antifa cell,” but the zines did not belong to Maricela, were not removed from her home, and were not introduced as evidence at her trial, which centered on a July 4, 2026, noise demo at the Prairieland ICE detention center in Alvarado, Texas.

Possums are on of Des's fav. animal and he has put out many designs featuring them. So will we. We will continue to support Des, Maricela and the other defendants.
