never forgive//
never forget:
mark “migs” neiweem is a
snitch and will always be one
We live at an historical moment in which we
can only discern who our allies are by knowing who
our enemies are. As anarchists, we know that the po-
lice are one such enemy that, no matter the situation,
always work towards the management of our lives
and the containment of those who seek to be ungov-
ernable. It is crucial to remember, however, that cops
don’t always come with uniforms and guns. From
union bureaucrats to activist “leaders,” policing has
taken far more insidious disguises, but a particularly
crucial form of policing utilized by the State-- that of
federal informants, undercover police, and those for-
mer comrades who testify to have their friends locked
up-- has remained one of the most powerful tools of
crushing those who wish to pose a danger to systems
of domination.
From Brandon Darby to Anna the Medic, we
know of the stories of far too many snitches and
informants who have put away our friends in cages.
From this experience, we know our only option in the
face of state repression: absolute non-cooperation
with the State, and the total isolation of anyone who
would choose to cooperate. Perhaps total isolation
is even too kind. Regardless of how we choose to
express our hatred of policing, however, standing in
solidarity against snitches who think that they can
be re-integrated into anti-authoritarian spaces is the
bare minimum that anarchists can do to maintain our
struggle against repression and the policing of our
lives.
our greatest weapon against snitching
is our solidarity with each other
We remind you of this crucial aspect of soli-
darity because there is a snitch in the Chicagoland
area named Mark “Migs” Neiweem, who is under the
impression that he can be an anarchist organizer after
bragging about his involvement with federal authori-
ties a year ago. The worst part is that a number of
anarchists in Chicago, including NW Side Anarchist
Black Cross, have chosen associate with him again.
Let’s make sure to remind Migs and his supporters
that there is no space within their reach that snitching
and snitch apologism will be tolerated.
To aid in protecting our social circles and
organzing endeavors from Migs and his dangerous be-
havior, we are providing as much information possible
to make sure that he cannot pose a threat. On the back
side of this flyer, you will find the callout by Chicago
Anti-Racist Action of the ways in which Mark Nei-
weem spoke of cooperating with federal authorities.
While we do not have pictures of Migs, a main iden-
tifying feature is being covered in anarchist tattoos,
most noticeably sporting a large black and red flag
tattoo on his neck. He ironically works with NW Side
Anarchist Black Cross, despite a number of prison
penpals wanting nothing to do with him once he had
the nerve to brag about his snitching exploits to them.
If you come into contact with this person, make sure
that everyone around you knows what he has done and
what he is capable of doing again.

Mark Neiweem
“Migs” Admits to
Being an FBI
Informant
June 6, 2011
This was a statement put out last year on
Chicago Indymedia but has since been removed for
unknown reasons. Since this article, ‘Multiple Migs’
has been trying to reconnect with others in the anar-
chists scene and was recently kicked out of his wife’s
house and is living somewhere in Chicago. We would
like to say that although it is unknown whether Migs is
still working with the feds, and that we are not aware
of any arrests that have resulted with his cooperation,
that this is not the point.
The facts are clear: Migs talked for hours sev-
eral times with feds (even after being told to contact
a lawyer), said openly to our faces that he was go-
ing to work for them and has always been extremely
dishonest and sketchy. So sketchy as to make phone
calls to several people attempting to discuss plans
for direct action and describing actions he claimed to
have been a part of, even after believing his phone
may have been tapped. He has said to some that he
knows that he has messed up in the past, so he was
asked to make written public statement detailing the
extent of his collaboration with law enforcement and
his recklessness towards security culture, however
nothing has materialized yet.
We feel he is absconding responsibility by
telling other people different stories and attempting
to cover up his history (such as having Indymedia
remove the original statement about him). Because
Indymedia removed the original article, and because
Migs is still actively trying to work with other anar-
chists in the city without taking responsibility for his
history, here is the original statement about Migs.
This is a statement about a person named
Mark Neiweem also known as “Migs” or “Multiple
Migs.” He is a 25 years old white male who lives in
Fox River Grove (and formerly Arlington Heights). He
is covered in anarchist tattoos and has regularly at-
tended protest marches and anarchist gatherings for
the past few years (often decked out in full black bloc
complete with football helmet and black flag). He was
recently arrested by himself for felony assault on a
police officer charges in a non-protest related incident
in which he served a few weeks in Cook County Jail
which is when he first said he was questioned by the
FBI.
On 7/21/2010, Mark admitted to our faces that
he has been meeting and cooperating with the FBI
regularly since his recent release from CCJ. He said
that he was going to continue to cooperate and active-
ly work with them - although he has said that he was
not targeting anarchists, he has alluded to the fact
that “the FBI already know all the Chicago anarchists”.
We don’t know the extent of his cooperation with the
feds as he has told multiple inconsistent stories and
it’s possible, based on his dishonest history and prior
sketchy behavior, that it has been going for longer
than he admits.
Prior to us knowing about his explicit involve-
ment with the FBI, he has continuously tried to get
into conversations with people about committing
outrageous unplanned illegal actions(not only face to
face but several times over the phone). He has been
asked several times to not discuss such things and
to practice better security culture, but he has ignored
this. He has also frequently been vague about his le-
gal history - telling people crazy stories about how he
once beat murder of a cop charges in Florida. He has
also been advised to contact a lawyer but has made
no effort to do so.
For these reasons several Chicago organiza-
tions, including ARA and members of NW ABC, disas-
sociated themselves from Migs over six months ago.
At that time people thought he was sketchy, had very
poor security culture, was dishonest, had drug and al-
cohol problems, was mentally unstable, and otherwise
reckless - but no one at the time was suspicious that
he was explicitly working for the feds.
We would normally be hesitant to make such
public accusations about someone’s sincerity as
an activist based on perceived sketchiness without
legitimate evidence suggesting otherwise - but in this
case, Migs admitted to our faces that he was work-
ing with the FBI. We suggest people cut off all ties to
Migs/Mark and to reevaluate security protocols in light
of this information especially if you have had prior
contact with Migs.
