Minnesota Uprising Arrestee Support hasn't added a story.
My name is Montez Lee. I was arrested during the George Floyd riots. I have been wrongly accused of arson by the federal government. I have been incarcerated for the last 8 months and have only been in front of a judge once since. I have been denied bail release pending trial because i am a supposed danger to the public and a flight risk even though I've never ran from an officer and I'm a respected community member. I am a father to two children who i have had little contact with due to being incarcerated. I have lost everything I've had because of this situation. With high hopes of prevailing, I'm asking for help with restoring my life. I have nothing to come home to in terms of housing, clothing, and transportation. I hope to help others who have been wrongly accused and steer them in the right direction, in the future. I also hope to go back to college to do so. Every dollar donated is a step closer to achieving that. Thank you for your contributions.”
You can write letters and/or send books to Montez at:
Montez Lee
Sherburne County Jail
13880 Business Center
Dr. NW
Suite 200
Elk River, MN 55330-1692
Books must be new, soft cover and from a publisher/vendor only. Books received from any other source will be considered contraband and will be placed in the inmate’s property. Coloring and puzzle books are not allowed.
All money raised will be going directly to Montez and will be dispersed by a close friend who he identified for this purpose.
