Take action to help parole Robert "Seth" Hayes

Robert “Seth” Hayes is a U.S. political prisoner and former member of
the Black Panther Party who has been imprisoned in New York state for
more than three decades. When Seth was convicted in 1974, his sentence
was 25 years to life. The implicit understanding at the time of his
sentencing was that Seth would serve 25 years as a minimum, after which time he would be eligible for release based on his record and conduct in prison.

In June of 2008, Seth will be going before the parole board for the
fourth time. At each of Seth’s previous parole hearings, he was denied
release.
