Internet Host's Case Ends In Mistrial

Hal Turner

The trial of Internet talk show host HAL TURNER, who was facing charges of making terrorist threats against three federal judges in CHICAGO, has ended in a mistrial.  TURNER, who claimed that he was set up and was really working as an undercover agent for the FBI, will face a retrial on MARCH 1st after a federal jury deadlocked, reportedly at 9-3 in favor of acquittal. 

U.S. District Court DONALD WALTER has placed TURNER and lawyers for both sides under a gag order preventing them from talking about the case until the new trial begins.

TURNER also faces separate charges in CONNECTICUT for allegedly inciting violence against state officials.
