AP story - protest letter from Russian intellectuals
http://www.boston.com/news/world/europe/2012/06/27/intellectuals-urge-kremlin-release-jailed-punks/mhAocdYKNAWU4XiAOpLCcM/story.html

NPR feature yesterday
http://www.npr.org/2012/06/26/155767665/months-after-protest-russian-rockers-still-jailed

I serendipitously heard this while making myself a sandwich. Essentially they were saying that the government and church have mishandled the situation - making martyrs out of the girls. And now public opinion is swinging behind PR.
