Blogger Accused of Threatening Judges Subpoenas N.J. Governor-Elect

November 30, 2009

A New Jersey blogger scheduled to go on trial on charges that he threatened three federal judges in hate-filled postings has subpoenaed the state's governor-elect to testify on his behalf. Harold "Hal" Turner claims that he was a federal government informant and that the postings targeting the judges and other inflammatory statements were part of an undercover operation to ferret out violent left-wing radicals.
