Thank you to everyone who has kept my brother Danny in their thoughts. We are unspeakably devastated by yesterday's events, but we will not give up or rest in our efforts to #BringDannyHome no matter what it takes. We deeply appreciate your support. washingtonpost.com/world/myanmar-…
Day 157. A picture is worth a thousand words. Danny’s next hearing will be November 3rd. We thank you for your continued love and support. We will get through this. #BringDannyHome #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar apnews.com/article/media-…

Support at: https://t.co/oSIRtEfkS1Last year’s Huntington Woods parade was an entire city rising up for freedom of the press and the safe return of our beloved resident, Danny Fenster. How great to hug Danny at home safe and sound along with his family at the very start of this year’s parade!! 1/2
@bryanFenster I don’t think Danny’s interview will detract from interest in Ukraine. If anything it’s an important reminder that autocracy is on the rise in many places, and we all need to band together to resist it.
“We’re not doing enough for these people.” Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian was wrongfully detained in Iran for 18 months. Sunday, Rezaian tells Lesley Stahl what he thinks the United States should be doing to help the more than 40 American detainees still held today.
When Danny Fenster was taken into custody at the airport in Myanmar, the police “handcuffed and blindfolded” him and wouldn’t allow outside communication for weeks. In his first national TV interview, Fenster tells Lesley Stahl his story of being a “wrongful detainee” Sunday.
So grateful to Congressman Levin's team for meeting with us to talk about the #BuildBackBetter Act. We know @RepAndyLevin would have been there but he was working hard to bring Danny home. #BringDannyHome #UWAdvocate
1/2 It was wonderful seeing Danny Fenster reunited with his family today, and I was honored to join @RichardsonCNTR in welcoming Danny home. Thanks to Gov. Richardson and his entire team for securing Danny’s release.
Welcome back to Michigan, Danny. detroitnews.com/story/news/loc…
Despite the super long flight and only two hours’ sleep, Danny was right there. Honest. Compelling. Funny. Worried about other journalists and human rights activists still detained. A true journalist talking to his brethren.
Now, hopefully, the family can have some peace and the best-Thanksgiving-ever!
Of course, the Fensters turned out in force to welcome Danny, and it was moving beyond words. But Danny’s participation in a press conference with Governor Bill Richardson, who brought him home, was next level.
Nothing compares to watching Rose Fenster envelop her son Danny in her arms after five-and-a-half excruciatingly long months of unjust detention in a Myanmar prison.
Statement from the family of Danny Fenster: "We are overjoyed that Danny has been released and is on his way home..."

Thanks everyone who spoke up for Danny, who's been locked up for almost six months on trumped up charges, like so many other heroes in Myanmar. His release is a big relief for Frontier, his friends and his family. So many other families in Myanmar deserve to hear the same news.
