News: ACLU queries Harvard's police

Reporter David Abel of the Boston Globe has written this story on our work to find out why the Harvard University Police Department has apparently been using an undercover photographer to take pictures of political protestors. The story quotes John Reinstein, our Legal Director, and refers to the fact that the ACLU of Massachusetts is representing two protestors who were arrested in March after trying to take pictures of Harvard's undercover photographer himself.

We'd like to know what they're doing and why, and whether Harvard is part of the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force, which some other schools around the country have joined.

Reporter Jamison A Hill of the Harvard Crimson broke the story yesterday, and followed up today with an HUPD rebuttal that raises new questions.
