Justesen disappeared underground, so the 'Seattle Eight' became the more mellifluous 'Seattle Seven.'" (Crowley, Walt. Rites of Passage: A Memoir of the Sixties in Seattle. Seattle: University of Washington Press. pp. 171-172) Background information: "The trial of the Seattle Seven began on November 23, 1970, in the Tacoma courtroom of Judge George Boldt … He sentenced them on contempt and declared a mistrial on December 10the defendants later won temporary freedom on bail."
