Hannah Giles' Legal Defense Fund
In the summer of 2009, 20-year-old college student Hannah Giles spent her summer working with James O?Keefe to expose ACORN corruption. Together, they released videos from six cities showing ACORN employees encouraging the duo, posing as a prostitute and pimp, to break laws including tax laws and underage prostitution. Since the release of the videos, ACORN and two of its former employees filed a $5 million lawsuit against Hannah, James, and Andrew Breitbart, who helped popularize the videos through his BigGovernment.com website. After the suit was dismissed, a third ACORN official, this one in Philadelphia, filed suit. This case is just starting in Federal Court in Philadelphia. Liberty Institute represents Hannah to protect the free speech of citizen journalists, and has established www.DefendHannah.com as her legal defense fund.
