Dear President Brody:

We have become aware of the fact that The Johns Hopkins University has been charged with dozens of Animal Welfare Act violations; and that Charles Connor and Ernst Niebuhr are involved in extremely cruel and redundant research utilizing rhesus monkeys.

These activities reflect poorly on the reputation of your facility, and I think you’ll agree with us that this outweighs any perceived financial benefit from these projects – especially at a time when taxpayers are financially stressed to begin with.

Please see to it that these “experiments” are terminated as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Frank L. Hoffman

Mary T. Hoffman
