Media & Press

With gratitude to the journalists who refused to look away,

The journalists who have told Jacob’s story have stood in the uneasy space between bureaucracy and humanity. They have asked the questions a country did not want to confront and that a mother could not afford to leave unanswered.

Their reporting has been an act of protection, of visibility, and of witness for me. To every editor, producer, and journalist who took the time to listen, verify, and tell this story with care, thank you. Your integrity has informed the public and preserved a record for my child.
