On Thursday, May 19, the TCBJ board sent a letter to U.S. Marshal Sharon Lubinski in support of MPR reporter Mukhtar Ibrahim who has been singled out at the U.S. District Courthouse in Minneapolis. At our meeting earlier this week, Mukhtar told members how he felt about the unfair treatment he has been subjected to. We have sent this letter after signing on to a letter penned by SPJ. NABJ President Sarah Glover and Regional Director Vickie Thomas have both been informed and are in support of our efforts.
