We all know Reiner is amazing - his passion, his keeping going despite more than 4 months in solitary confinement, his determination that he will not be broken.
What about Ed Wackerman, the seriously disabled senior charged with setting what was, according to all the evidence, an unnatural fire? Upon his spectacular arrest - 6 police officers with guns drawn - his special inlay and brace were taken from him, an inlay and brace needed for a badly damaged foot. Also his pain medication was denied to him, medication that had kept him pain-free for 18 years. From his arrest on June 16, 2023 to more than 14 months later, August 26, 2024, when he got his inlay and brace back after a court order, whenever Ed stood up, he had to steel himself for at least a minute before he could endure the pain and move.
And yet, imprisoned for a crime he did not commit, not even a preliminary hearing for 14 months, in such pain that he would sometimes wake up crying, he did not quit.
He had never quit before, not when his back was broken, not when his foot was badly damaged.
Or to put it the other way, he’s a fighter, to the best of his ability.
I’ll end with his teen years.
But first, here he is right now.
ED
No word on pain medication, no word on anything, frustrating for sure. I'm thinking positive though, patiently waiting for news.
12 Sep, 2024Elsa, it all started when I was 10 years old and my mother told me I was too young to know I was going to be a firefighter. Then, you can't have long hair, you can't visit your aunt.
My driver's license was the beginning. I immediately started firefighting, seeing my aunt and growing my hair long. It was all a good fight for freedom.
Now I'm fighting again, it's more difficult but I will do it.
16 Sep, 2024
And now, Ed in his family and as a teenager. A big word for him. FREEDOM. Find out what he did to get 360 minutes of detention all at once!
My sense is that Ed and I were lucky to find each other. He’s a fighter, not a quitter. But there he was, in prison for over a year, not even a preliminary hearing, with only one friend who came to see him every week.
After I got in touch with Ed, his court-appointed lawyer did not even answer the letter I sent, asking him to take the deposition from expert arborist Robert Brame, establishing that the fire Ed was charged with setting was unnatural, meaning Ed could not have set it. That lawyer also, so I heard, had Ed’s inlay and brace in his possession for over a year, and did nothing to get them to Ed.
I’d say Ed needed help.
As for me, Ed could have been someone with no fighting spirit, or someone whose spirit had been broken, or someone who did not want to hear about the fire being from directed energy.
It has been one step after another. Many more to go.

FOR WRITING TO ED
First, a big thank you to those of you who have written to Ed.
And then, detailed instructions on what you can and cannot do.
PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
For example, Ed has just been informed that letters have been destroyed where the writer wrote on the back of a page. This is not in accord with the instructions given. The instructions are that, if one writes on the back, whatever is on the back is not scanned. Only one side is scanned. However, in this case, nothing was sent to Ed.
Then, someone sent 2 books and had them returned. It took me half an hour to get the instructions about books. I was told the instructions are on the site. I kept the operator on the phone, to make sure that, with her help, I could find them. It turned out that the instructions are not on the site. However, she had them:
One. Books are to be mailed to the actual detention center (address below).
Two. They must be new soft cover books, mailed either from Amazon or a publisher. Nothing else gets to a prisoner.

THE STORY, IN BRIEF. Ed Wackerman, an innocent man. He’s been in jail for almost a year, since June 2023. No bail. Not even a preliminary hearing until October 30. 2024. You might believe: He must have done something. In fact, it appears his “crime” was being a “nobody” - living alone in his cabin with his little dog, no family close by, widower, hard of hearing, difficulty walking. He’s been charged with setting a major California fire - the Oak Fire of 2022. But he could not have set it. No one could have set it. There’s massive evidence - hidden by the mainstream media - that it was an unnatural fire. (Proof available.) But Ed could not even have set a regular fire. He’s seriously disabled - very slow-moving because of major injuries - and he’s accused of setting a fire he could never have outrun. I’ve been told that only an Olympic sprinter could have outrun it.
I got involved because a friend asked me to (January 2024) and when I did nothing, asked me again (the beginning of March 2024). So I got in touch with Ed, wrote a letter to his lawyer, and more - like I’ve written about half a dozen posts on him, posting the letters he’s written to me.
From the time of his arrest: tortured. Due to a badly injured foot, he needs a special inlay and brace to walk without agony. These were taken from him at the time of his arrest, never returned. When he stands, it takes him a minute to be able to endure the pain, and move. He also was taking pain medication, That was also taken from him. Instead he was given Tylenol by the prison nurse, who is married to the DA in charge of his case until recently. He spent much of the 15 months after his arrest bedridden to try to control the pain.
