Subject: Riot Charge Against Prize-Winning Independent Journalist, Amy Goodman
Dear North Dakota State Attorney Ladd R. Erickson:
Since you were first elected North Dakota’s State Attorney in 2002, and subsequently re-elected in 2006, 2010 and 2014, you have prosecuted numerous cases based on a multitude of charges.
The case you are attempting to bring against Democracy Now! host, and award-winning veteran independent journalist, Amy Goodman is simply a miscarriage of the justice that you have been elected to uphold. It is a case unworthy of your stated responsibilities to protect the public. It is a case that flies in the face of the critical freedoms that we Americans hold dear.
