Harmeet Dhillon Responds to Don Lemon: Journalism Is Not a Shield that Protects You from the Criminal Consequences When You Are Part of a Crime

EXCERPT:

DHILLON: “Well, look, we have a presumption of innocence in this country, so I want to preserve my ethical duties here. But let me just say that, you know, he’s a journalist — he was a journalist, I don’t know he is now, but he — journalism is not a badge or a shield that protects you from criminal consequences when you are part of a crime. And I think the videos show how close he was to these folks. I think further evidence will show more information about that. But he clearly knew and he stated before going into the facility, it’s on his own video, what was going to happen there.”
