”I did it to punish the rich white people of Orcas Island and make them
pay for the death of the whales and the depletion of the rain forests”
-Mondragon
>>"Gabriel Thomas Mondragon, 29 years old, who recently arrived from New
Mexico, explained to Sheriff’s Deputies that in an attempt to make the
people on Orcas “suffer just like the whales and trees”, he attempted
to use a tree limbing saw -on a metal pole- to cut through a 69,000 volt
power line.
According to the sheriff’s report, the man, identified as Gabriel
Mondragon, also stated he wanted to protest “the death of Luna the whale
and the destruction of the rain forest.”
Being well informed on the power of high voltage power lines, Mondragon
cleverly put on several pair of latex dish washing gloves to isolate him
from electrocution, and proceeded to touch saw to power line.
