Advocates Call for Review in Case Involving Survivor of Sexual Violence

Palatka, FL — Advocates, community members, and supporters are calling for urgent review in the case of 23-year-old transwoman Mathew Temael, also known as Dandelion, who has been incarcerated at the Putnam County Jail since 2023 following an incident in which it is alleged that she had stood her groundin self-defense against Louis Stackhouse III, a convicted pedophile who had repeatedly sexuallyassaulted her.

As the Florida State Attorney’s Office threatening Dandelion with the death sentence, supporters say the case raises serious concerns about how the Florida criminal justice system continues a double standard of criminalizing survivors of sexual violence while protecting sex offenders, particularly when claims of self-defense and prior abuse are involved.

Mathew Temael was arrested and charged in the death of 70-year-old convicted child rapist, trafficker and pedophile Louis Stackhouse III. To ensure a fair trial, supporters are demanding that the State Attorney’s Office does not withhold evidence that will allow the jury to consider the full context of trauma, coercion, and immediate threat experienced by Dandelion prior to the alleged murder of Louis Stackhouse III.

“Survivors of sexual assault do not deserve the death penalty. They deserve to have their lived experiences fully understood within the legal process,” said one member of the Free Mathew Temael Legal Defense Committee. “If it is alleged that a rape survivor stands their ground out of fear for their life, that context cannot be ignored.”

Advocates are Demanding the Office Of The State Attorney R.J. Larizza, 7th Judicial Circuit to:

● Drop all charges
● Conduct a thorough, transparent, and trauma-informed review of all the evidence provided in the
case
● Present all evidence related to prior sexual assault and self-defense is fully presented to the court

The case highlights broader concerns about the systemic barriers that all sexual assault and domestic violence survivors face in getting favorable rulings and protection from the criminal justice system.

Community members are encouraged to express their concerns and call for a fair review prior to her May
14th pre-trial hearing by writing letters of support to:

1-B Putnam County Courthouse
410 St. Johns Avenue
Palatka, Florida 32177
Circuit Court, County Court
State Attorney, General Magistrate t

Community members are also asked to support by appearing at her trial, to be held at the Putnam County
Courthouse beginning May 14 at 1:30pm.

Have you ever been in a vulnerable moment? A dangerous one even? A moment where you really needed a warrior, a helper, a friend? These are the times when Dandelion always shows up, often in a flowing skirt with ribbons, billowing brightly in the sun. From coast to coast, dnn answers the call of those most in need. As a trans neuroexpansive indigenous migrant, she knows what it’s like to be targeted, attacked, & assaulted, yet she never acts out of fear for herself, only out of deep love for others.

That is why Dandelion has been accused of unaliving the man who raped her, Louis Stackhouse. Unlike our caring, brave Dandelion, Louis Stackhouse is an entitled white man, convicted child rapist, known trafficker, predator, and overall abuser who lived in the middle of a white supremacist controlled region of Florida. Rather than celebrate the removal of a known pedophile,
the State of Florida is trying to pin this courageous act on dnny. After 3 years of torture in Putnam County Jail, the State wants to start the process of giving Dandelion the death penalty on May 14th with pretrial.

It is up to us as kind caring humans left on this incredible Earth to stop them. We must resist. Share this information with everyone you know who still has an open heart and mind: friends, family, independent news outlets, social media. Share everywhere. dnny’s life depends on it. Write to the Clerk of Circuit in Putnam County FL to let them know how much we love dandelion, how much her presence in our communities means to us, that the charges should be dropped, and that they need to be freed immediately! This is the only way to reach the judge who has the power to dismiss the case. If you have any personal stories about how Dandelion has helped you or people you love, include that as well. 2509 Crill Ave, Palatka, FL 32177.

You can also add funds directly to Dnny’s commissary using her legal name, Mathew Temael and ID#23001768 on this site below:

Blessed is the Flame: Two Bama Frat Bros Killed on Hunting Trip

Posted on by dirtysouth

Two University of Alabama students were killed Wednesday morning [July 1] in a fire near Evergreen in Conecuh County. The students, Mark “McNeil” Mostellar, aged 21, and James “Walter” Hensley, aged 19, were both business majors and members of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity. Two other occupants managed to escape and were taken to a hospital for treatment, officials said.

The two students had traveled for a hunting trip with two of their fraternity brothers, according to local media. Mostellar was a graduate of UMS-Wright Preparatory School, where he played outside linebacker on the football team. Hensley graduated from St. Paul’s Episcopal School in Mobile.

Delta Kappa Epsilon is part of “The Machine,” a coalition of white supremacist fraternities and sororities at the University of Alabama which has controlled the student government for a century. Many members of “The Machine” go on to prestigious careers in the state of Alabama.

Malik Transferred, Please Support!

Posted on by dirtysouth

6/11/2026

Malik has been transferred to Broad River Correctional (BRCI) – a maximum security facility in Columbia, South Carolina.

After so much uncertainty and no answers from Oregon DOC, we have learned that Malik has ended up at an institution nearby the Kirkland transfer facility.

This type of interstate transfer is rare and has been used as retaliation against political prisoners working to organize with fellow prisoners and challenge the awful conditions across the US prison system. See recent reporting for how this process has been weaponized.

We are so relieved to know that Malik is alive and their whereabouts are known (even though ODOC has intentionally moved them away from their friends, lawyer, and loved ones).

But as Malik seeks to stabilize and rebuild after their possessions were taken, we are asking folks for support. Please consider contributing to their commissary and living expenses: https://chuffed.org/project/185716-support-malik-muhammad

All funds will go directly to Malik and will be strictly accounted for; we deeply appreciate your support and solidarity as Maliks transitions to this next chapter.

Love, rage, and solidarity. Always

Two Black Captives On The Run: Aid And Abet!!

Posted on by dirtysouth

May the 30th. Four Black people get themselves out of the Perry County Correctional PREP Center (a.k.a. JAIL). Within hours, a fifth Black person is arrested for supposedly helping them out.

May the 31st. Two of the escapees are rearrested.

June the 8th. There have been no further updates on the remaining two fugitives. Suggesting they have not been recaptured.

For all of those who remember the mass jailbreak out of “NOLA” last year. One of them made it five months…Let’s take this opportunity to interfere and disrupt and disorganize the carceral slave state that attempts to “capture” people it has no right to govern. Aid and abet jail/prison/detention/juvy escapes! The law is a lie.

(An update from cracker-occupied territory, somewhere around the “Black Belt”…)

jail

Posted on by dirtysouth

one day in the last week of may. 2026. (on the oppressor’s kalendar.)
i went into the website for the tuskaloosa kounty jail.
&& out of about 650 or so registered kaptives.
i kounted every person who has been inside sinse 2023. (on the oppressor’s kalendar.)
so, people who been lokked up for at least 2.5 years at this point.
&& the jail website had 48 people lokked up on their list who had been in that long. of which, 37 were Blakk.
that’s 77%. in a kounty that is supposed to be around 33% Blakk. (in the oppressor’s sensus data.)

the breakdown year by year looks like this.
lokked up in 2023 – 20 Blakk ppl, 9 others.
lokked up in 2022 – 9 Blakk ppl, 1 other.
lokked up in 2021 – 7 Blakk ppl, 1 other.
lokked up in 2020 – yes, there was one Blakk person in jail in tuskaloosa who has been there sinse 2020.

i desyded to do the same thing in jefferson kounty (where birmingham is).
&& i found in their website, on the same day, 129 people who had been lokked up in jail sinse 2023 or earlier.
&& i found 114 of them were Blakk.
which is like 90%. in a kounty that’s supposed to be 43% Blakk. (in the oppressor’s sensus data.)

&& i know how i feel about this situation. && what i feel should be done about this. about jails. about kounties. about ameriKKKan states & the ameriKKKan way of life.

but what i don’t know is. now that YOU know.
what do YOU feel about this situation.
&& what do YOU feel should be done.
&& what will YOU do about jails ?
about kounties ?
about ameriKKKan states ?
about the ameriKKKan way of life ?
{{how}} will WE akt ?

CALL TO ACTION: Confederate (and American) Flag Scavenger Hunt

Posted on by dirtysouth

Tennessee, Louisiana, Georgia, and South Carolina are actively attempting to redraw congressional lines to reduce representation of Black voters. White supremacists are more emboldened than ever to show their true colors and terrorize their Black neighbors. Confederate flags hang from their doors, their cars, and are planted lovingly at their gravesites. Each flag is a reminder that minorities are not safe in this violent settler colony.

As anarchists, we recognize electoralism as a dead-end strategy for the pursuit of our liberation. At the same time we must also recognize these redistricting efforts as the resurgence of neo-Confederacy, Jim Crow, and genocidal intent to erase Black southerners from public life. Liberals are already planning their permitted marches to express their outrage. Perhaps they will vote extra hard for the primaries. This does not threaten the white supremacists carrying out their fascist desires. We would like to propose a different form of solidarity.

Get together with your friends or your affinity group. Map out where the confederate flags, monuments, and plaques are in your community. Remove as many of them from the public eye as you can. Do the same with the american flag while you’re at it, as it represents the same horrific white supremacy. Set them all on fire, confederate and american, on July 4th! Or whenever you want.

Update on Malik Muhammed’s Forced Disappearance

Posted on by dirtysouth

According to a prison support group ( https://kolektiva.social/@malikspeaks/116361011946216063 ), Black, Palestinian, non-binary, anarchist prisoner Malik Muhammed has been transferred from “oregon” to “south carolina.” Malik’s locs were forcibly removed.

Retaliatory transfers between u.s. administrative divisions (“states”) & attacks on Black cultural expressions like hair have a long history. Retaliatory transfers are broadly known as ‘diesel therapy.’

Police executed Fallus Williams Polk, a 42-year-old Black parent, for not wanting to be their property

Posted on by dirtysouth

Attached is a video of police on the gulf coast of the “Caribbean” sea executing Fallus Williams Polk, a 42-year-old Black parent for not wanting to be their property.

There are many critiques of videos of police killings in general & of Black people in particular. In many ways, they serve as “snuff films” – the violence is framed as justified by the society that produces them. The suffering recorded may or may not elicit sympathy, but rarely elicits action. The proliferation of police body cameras (critiqued by anarchists & others since at least 2014, in the wake of the armed uprising against “Ferguson, Missouri” & its armed defenders) has done nothing to prevent the proliferation of police bullets into Black people.

With the above context in mind, this video is being shared because (to me) it appears to have been produced & shared “independently,” as an initiative between people rather than released to the public by the state. Many local governments, particularly in the “u.s.” south, rely on suppression of evidence, including videos, to silence outrage in the wake of particularly stark incidents of slave patrolling. It also may allow some viewers to understand what kind of behavior, when undertaken by Black people, can be construed as a “threat,” in order for aspiring rebels to better shape resistance efforts. I hope it serves as a reminder to others, in particular others who will take action, that anti-Black violence is ubiquitous &, presently, unending. It does not only exist in neat containers like “2020” or “Black Lives Matter” or “when an article is published in the enemy’s news media.” The footage may also be useful for those interested in identifying the footsoldiers who carried out the killing.

The video source is a fedbook post by a cousin of the victim, Fallus Polk. It’s not clear to me how the cousin obtained the video.

One discussion of the limits of recording can be found by searching for the publication “Don’t Film, Act: A Call for Confrontation.”
