A climate activist jailed for 15 months after a protest on the Sydney Harbour Bridge has been released from prison after a judge approved her bail appeal, as more than 100 protestors gathered outside court in support.
District court judge Timothy Gartelmann on Tuesday granted bail to 32-year-old Deanna “Violet” Coco, who in December was handed a 15-month jail sentence with a non-parole period of eight months.
