Boston Animal Defense League's Bill Budington was enraged over a private restitution deal made by Derek Garcia to the victims of  BADL's wide sweeping home and office harassment campaign on behalf of W.A.R. (Win Animal Rights) Central Command.

Budington, who has tried repeatedly to snake material and images critical of himself from the Haters Magazine webpage and who circulates the BADL action directives and tactical secrecy memos did circulate the following letter:
"badl@hush.com" to adl-boston
The BADL 4 Legal Update:

As most of you know, the Boston Animal Defense League has been going through
a long process of pre-trial court in the case of the campaign against
previous Boston HLS-customer, Surface Logix.

BADL faced a major blow yesterday when 4 of the co-defendants showed up for
court to find out that the other co-defendant had decided to take a deal without
consultation. With the lack of evidence laid out against the activists, and with full confidence of getting the entire case thrown out, Derek Garcia decided to take it upon himself and pay $1000 restitution to Surface Logix, which in turn would drop the charges against him, so he could go traveling.

We'd like to point out that this was the first protest that Derek Garcia had
ever shown up to in support of this campaign. A number of the co-defendants
have dedicated the last 4-5 years of their lives to this campaign.
We'd also like to point out that Derek is a law student, and was the only co-defendant that ran his mouth to the Boston Police Department, giving specifics on a number of the other co-defendants, as it was revealed in the police reports.

This affects the entire campaign against Huntingdon Life Sciences, who is on
the brink of closure. This was also an action against the resistance and
solidarity with the larger Boston community.

HOWEVER, THIS WILL NOT AFFECT BADL'S RESISTANCE AGAINST HUNTINGDON LIFE
SCIENCES! We will continue to take down the local customers that continue to
conduct business with HLS!

BADL has pulled all support for Derek Garcia, and we are pleading with the
rest of the community to join us! For more information on this, don't hesitate to get in touch! badl@hush.com

**WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK OUR FRIENDS ALL OVER
THE COUNTRY WHO HAVE BEEN SO SUPPORTIVE OVER THESE PROCEEDINGS, ESPECIALLY
THE LOCAL COMMUNITY! YOU ARE IN OUR HEARTS!**

Implied in the letter is that BADL's efforts were significantly adversely affected by one of their number making a private deal.  Budington has unleashed numerous vengeful verbal fusillades at persons who break ranks with the local node of this national ecoterrorist brigade.  Also, Budington derides Garcia's credentials, citing as many Boston college students do, his own 4 years committed to direct action, and the needs of the criminal collective which outrank the needs of the individual criminal.  Budington does not go so far as to accuse Garcia of being a plant, but he grazes the accusation by referencing Garcia's noobishness to BADL's direct actions.  Derek Garcia is a well known local leftist idiot.

Derek Garcia is a Northeastern University student contact to the National Lawyer's Guild.  He was the Paypal and cash donation collector for Operation Over when he resided at 1345 Beacon Street, Brookline MA.  Operation Over was already warned against violating Brookline's private residence protesting rules during the BU Biosafety Level 4 (BSL4) April 2006 protests in which people's homes were assaulted with clamor and litter because the fact that BU "draws no distinctions between legitimate and illegitimate research" was met with students who draw no distinction between legitimate and illegitimate forms of protest.

Derek Garcia is one of the myriad NLG college law students who have their protest antics hosted on Boston Indymedia, and who issue anonymous threats to persons who delineate, describe, or otherwise criticize their activity in the heavily censored comments section.  Derek is associated with Erin and Stephanie who are also part of the Operation Over - BU Student Underground - Animal Defense League nexus.  They are all material opponents of the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act, and target stock exchanges, private homes, fax machines, and mailboxes.  Jake Carman, who is protected in anonymous journalism by Boston Indymedia and BAAM / Boston Socialists writes Sacco and Vanzetti paeans wherein Garcia is quoted as a "random" marcher.  It is all one giant network.

Now Budington is issuing this memorandum to instigate a boycott of Derek Garcia across all the activist communities in Boston.  It's very amusing.  Perhaps the donation to this outfit by Steve of TJ Scallywaggles can cover the rest of their bills:
"badl@hush.com" to adl-boston
BADL held a benefit for the BADL5(4) last night at TJ
Scallywaggles.

We would like to thank all the bands who played including:
Evan Greer (birthday boi, benefit organizer), Brook Pridemore, Dan
Costello, and The Scallywags.

We would also like to give a HUGE thanks to Steve from TJ
Scallywaggles, who has been so supportive of the BADL5(4) during
the entire court process! He has had encouraging words, offered the
restaraunt space for events, donated food, and donated $60 to the
benefit!
We Love You Steve!! We'd also like to thank Mike from TJ's who
helped book this benefit.
TOTAL, BADL raised $120, with Steve's generous donation!

Please support TJ Scallywaggles!!
They have great food, and do a tremendous amount for the animals
and for the animal activist community.

Moral of the story:  You can't wage a good ecoterror and harassment campaign and also have highly publicized boycotts of your own members.  Also, don't let pesky summer vacations get in the way of going to jail as a political prisoner.

BADL is totally pwned as an activist organization.  FLIPSIDE has been kicked out of their groups, lists, meetings, etc. but the reports still flow.
