American photojournalists Bing Guan and Go Nakamura were pulled into secondary screening on Dec. 29, 2018, while re-entering the U.S. from Mexico. Both journalists were asked to show officers their photos : pressfreedomtracker.us/all-incidents/…
Freelance photojournalist Mark Abramson was pulled into secondary screening by CBP while returning from Mexico on Jan. 5; officers separated him from his phone, and asked about his assignments and knowledge on the caravan’s organizers : pressfreedomtracker.us/all-incidents/…
Freelance photojournalist Kitra Cahana was sent to secondary screening twice while en route to Mexico City in January : pressfreedomtracker.us/all-incidents/…
Photojournalist @adrehsler was stopped twice in 2019 and once in 2018 while re-entering the U.S. CBP asked her about her coverage of the migrant caravan, about the organizers and activists, and separated her from her phone and camera : pressfreedomtracker.us/all-incidents/…
If you are a journalist—or know of one—who has been stopped for secondary screening and questioned about your work or had devices searched by U.S. officials while crossing the border, we want to hear about it: DM or email tips@pressfreedomtracker.us.
