We received two notes suggesting we share the news that one of two lawyers honored at the state American Civil Liberties Union’s Bill of Rights Celebration Dinner last night is from West Seattle: Amanda Lee of Fauntleroy received the organization’s 2009 Civil Libertarian Award, as did colleague Jeffrey Robinson, for work the organization describes as “seeking to uphold American values in proceedings for detainees facing the death penalty at the Guantanamo Bay prison camp” (detailed here). Lee and Robinson are part of the John Adams Project.
