Judi Bari and Darryl Cherney were falsely arrested for car-bombing themselves on May 24, 1990 while on an Earth First! musical organizing tour for Redwood Summer. They sued the FBI for violations of the First Amendment, claiming the FBI knew they were innocent but arrested them to try to silence them.

Leave your thoughts about Who Bombed Judi Bari?.
| Shared DarknessBrent SimonAn engaging document of Bari's eventual exoneration (in her own bombing), but also a nonfiction tribute to the steel-spined spirit of Bari and other dedicated non-violent activists. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe only film ever to be released with the promise of a reward--$50,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the bomber--Who Bombed Judi Bari? is an engrossing account of the case. |
| VarietyRonnie ScheibThe film, produced by Cherney, makes a clear and cogent case (later upheld by a court verdict) that police and FBI falsified evidence in order to discredit Bari's cause. |
| Village VoiceMichelle OrangeInsult upon injury didn't stop the central figure of Mary Liz Thomson's tough and intriguingly well-told account of the fight between environmentalists and corporate raiders (perhaps abetted, we learn, by the government) from taking the battle to her deathbed. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenThough its early sections feel repetitive and self-congratulatory, the documentary's tension builds in the way director Mary Liz Thomson uses archival material, much of it from TV news. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanThere is no satisfactory answer to the titular question posed by this no-frills environmental documentary. But first-time feature director Mary Liz Thomson does answer another one at least as important, by showing us who Judi Bari was. |
| The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerRelies too much on rehash and preaching to the choir to kindle a broad-based outrage, but it does make you wonder what really happened on May 24, 1990. |
| User ReviewDarcy MA poignant and uplifting story of environmental activists who survive a murder attempt only to then be subjected to police and FBI corruption. A very worthwhile film. |
| User ReviewChef AThis is an important film to see if you care about your First Amendment rights. The film will only be playing in LA for a week so please go see it . |
