Don Lemon was arrested in LA last night while covering the Grammy Awards, his lawyer Abbe Lowell has confirmed.
Lemon was a key instigator of the terrorist attack that happened at a Minnesota church where individuals swarmed the church and caused a mass disruption causing chaos and making threats to the pastor and members of the congregation.
Here is the statement released by his lawyer.
THE DON LEMON SHOW
STATEMENT FROM ABBE LOWELL,
ATTORNEY FOR DON LEMON
Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards. Don has been a journalist for 30 years, and his constitutionally protected work in Minneapolis was no different than what he has always done. The First Amendment exists to protect journalists whose role it is to shine light on the truth and hold those in power accountable. There is no more important time for people like Don to be doing this work.
Instead of investigating the federal agents who killed two peaceful Minnesota protesters, the Trump Justice Department is devoting its time, attention and resources to this arrest, and that is the real indictment of wrongdoing in this case. This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from the many crises facing this administration will not stand. Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court.
