State St. at the 11:40 a.m. service. <br /><br />Cardinal Francis George was leading services at the Parish Center because of construction at the main Cathedral. The protestors discharged packets of fake blood. Some of it splattered parishioners.<br /><br />Bond was set at $35,000 for Donte D. Smith, 21 and $25,000 for the five others including: Ephran Ramirez, Jr., 22, and Ryane J. Ziemba, 25, Mercedes Phinaih, 18, Regan Maher, 25, and Angela Haban, 20. <strong>Smith has served time in a federal prison in Texas </strong>for trespassing on a Native American reservation.<br /><br /><strong>All six protestors were charged with two counts of felony criminal damage to property and two counts of simple battery.</strong> <br /><br />As Cardinal George began his homily, the protesters stood up to stage what they called a Die-In. <br /><br />The group denounced the Cardinal for meeting this past January with President Bush, who they label a war criminal. </blockquote> Mugshots from <a href="http://tucson.cox.net/cci/newsnational/national?_mode=view&_state=maximized&view=article&id=D8VJFHTGA&_action=validatearticle"><strong>Tuscon Cox Network</strong></a> and <a href="http://www.nbc5.com/news/15682925/detail.html?rss=chi&psp=news"><strong>NBC5</strong></a>:<br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cnWcRIf9I/AAAAAAAAMTE/xukDhVHYD-s/s1600-h/ryane+ziemba.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cnWcRIf9I/AAAAAAAAMTE/xukDhVHYD-s/s200/ryane+ziemba.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181153162811703250" /></a><br />Ryane Ziemba <br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-ck9cRIf4I/AAAAAAAAMSc/FYUH6F_kZec/s1600-h/donte+smith.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-ck9cRIf4I/AAAAAAAAMSc/FYUH6F_kZec/s200/donte+smith.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181150534291718018" /></a><br />Donte Smith<br /><br /><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-clWMRIf5I/AAAAAAAAMSk/ayu5Jkh_uqM/s1600-h/ephron+ramirez.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-clWMRIf5I/AAAAAAAAMSk/ayu5Jkh_uqM/s200/ephron+ramirez.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181150959493480338" /></a><br />Ephron Ramirez, Jr.<br /><br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cl98RIf6I/AAAAAAAAMSs/FEr5VUtQo_M/s1600-h/angela+haban.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cl98RIf6I/AAAAAAAAMSs/FEr5VUtQo_M/s200/angela+haban.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181151642393280418" /></a><br />Angela Haban<br /><br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cmh8RIf7I/AAAAAAAAMS0/2T8HMHPgasU/s1600-h/mercedes+phinaih.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cmh8RIf7I/AAAAAAAAMS0/2T8HMHPgasU/s200/mercedes+phinaih.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181152260868571058" /></a><br />Mercedes Phinaih<br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cm9cRIf8I/AAAAAAAAMS8/fSnaCmA-Hi8/s1600-h/regan+maher.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_L6pDyjqqsvY/R-cm9cRIf8I/AAAAAAAAMS8/fSnaCmA-Hi8/s200/regan+maher.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5181152733314973634" /></a><br />Regan Maher<br /><br />Supporters of the protesters attended the arraignment today and are looking for donors to help raise the bail money for the <strong><a href="http://chicago.indymedia.org/newswire/display/81833/index.php">"Holy Name 6."</a></strong><br /><br /><em><strong>MORE...</strong></em> <a href="http://chicago.indymedia.org/newswire/display/81837/index.php"><strong>Chicago Indymedia</strong></a>:<br /><br /><blockquote>Today's hearing was in regards to charges of felony defacement of property at a place of worship in excess of $300; that makes the charge a Class III felony. The fake blood allegedly used in the action stained the auditorium's carpet and 14 chairs, incurring a $400 cleaning bill. According to the prosecuting attorney, the cleaning failed and the carpet will need to be replaced at a cost of $3000. Special conditions have been set for all the arrestees which prevent them from having any contact with Cardinal George, Holy Name Cathedral, or the area of 735 N. State Street. </blockquote> <em><strong>Previously:</strong></em><br /><a href="http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2008/03/easter-mass-attack-protesters-scream.html"><strong>EASTER MASS ATTACK!!
