Minnesota Prosecutor sought Enbridge funding to prosecute Water Protectors at Line 3

[link:https://www.protestlaw.org/news/minnesota-prosecutor-sought-enbridge-funding-to-prosecute-at-line-3|]

The Center for Protest Law & Litigation has obtained documents through our ongoing investigation showing that Jonathan Frieden, the lead prosecutor in Hubbard County, Minnesota, who is seeking to jail hundreds of peaceful Line 3 water protectors, sought Enbridge pipeline corporation’s money to fund his prosecutions.



The author claims, correctly IMHO, that the funding led to wrong charges against 100s of peaceful protesters.
