I just found an entry on Boing Boing that informs us that Patricia Santangelo, the mother who refused to settle out of court when the RIAA’s goons came to her door. Unfortunately she has run out of money to pay her legal fees during the court battle. Please take a moment to donate to her cause.

You can read the Boing Boing article here and you can about the initial court hearing (with a judge who tells off the RIAA lawyer) here.

Please donate and help fight Goliath!
