On January 28, 2012, the Archbishop of the Catholic Church of Puerto Rico, Roberto González Nieves held a mass in support of the excarceration of Oscar Lopez Rivera, and Avelino and Norberto Gonzalez Claudio. The Catholic Church and virtually all the religious denominations in Puerto Rico and the US have added their voices to the growing clamor for the freedom of Oscar López Rivera and all Puerto Rican political prisoners. The campaign for his freedom has been steadily intensifying its efforts for Oscar, who in May of 2012, will complete 31 yrs in prison.
The church installed in one of its shrine three roses for our three political prisoners which will remain there until they are released.
