Blogger Not Guilty Of Threatening State lawmakers

Blogger Hal Turner, accused of threatening state lawmakers over plans to oversee church finances, is found not guilty....

...Turner, 49, of North Bergen, N.J., had faced a felony charge of inciting injury and a misdemeanor charge of threatening, and could have been sentenced to up to 11 years in prison if convicted.

He represented himself in the trial, portraying his prosecution as retaliation by the state for speech it did not like.....

...State Capitol Police obtained a warrant for Turner's arrest and he was taken into custody in New Jersey before he could go on his radio program the next day and give out the officials' addresses.

Hartford Superior Court Judge Carl J. Schuman allowed Turner to hug his mother, wife and son, who attended the trial, before being escorted back into custody....

...former legislator Andrew McDonald and Thomas K. Jones, an official in the state ethics office testified Thursday that Turner's blog post shook them.

"I interpreted this as people were going to be coming to my house in 24 hours with bullets and guns," Jones testified.

Turner, in an hour-long argument to the jury Friday, said, "The state is prosecuting me simply for uttering words and there's a problem with that, because in the United State of America people are supposed to be free to express their opinions."

He sought to undermine the charges by saying that releasing the addresses of the officials was not an act of physical force or violence....

...."Ladies and gentlemen, this whole case is a fraud," Turner told the jury. "I said some nasty things about some politicians and they are misusing the power of the state to throw me in jail. This comes down to whether or not we as Americans can say things about our government without going into a gulag. These are the kinds of things we used to hear about in the former Soviet Union."

FREE SPEECH IS NOT ALWAYS PRETTY

It used to be that:

When the bad folks get together at night in Hartford

God Bless America
Words and music by Irving Berlin

Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,
Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer.

God Bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home.

SING IT KATE AND LET THOSE THIN SKINNED POLITICIANS AND CONNECTICUT'S CLUELESS CHIEF STATE'S ATTORNEY KEVIN T. KANE HEAR YOU LOUD AND PROUD...

By Teri Buhl His claim states, "Among with the financial damages she [Teri Buhl] created, her gross negligence caused me and my family undue emotional stress as we had to endure numerous threats for our safety spewed over the internet." ... Connecticut Watchdog - http://ctwatchdog.com/

Greenwich Roundup: 08/10/10 Here Is More Proof That Hearst Newspaper Editor David McCumber Should Be Immediately Fired From The Greenwich Time ... By GreenwichRoundup@gmail.com (Greenwich Roundup) Greenwich Time folds on Metter Suit By Teri Buhl Yesterday I thought I was finally going to get my day in court with alleged penny stock scam artist Michael Metter but instead find out Hearst Newspapers has succumbed to the Greenwich Radio station [WGCH 1490 AM] executive who’s facing serious criminal charges. You see in April, the Greenwich Time and I were sued in Connecticut small claims court by Michael Metter, co-founder of penny stock SpongeTech for $4,767.34. Metter claimed by publishing his home address, in a story that ran in all four Hearst owned CT newspaper on February 9th, and photos of his house while he was away on vacation that we acted maliciously. His claim states, “Among with the financial damages she [Teri Buhl] created, her gross negligence caused me and my family undue emotional stress as we had to endure numerous threats for our safety spewed over the internet.” Those damages consisted of paying a lawyer $2,500 to write a letter to Hearst to try to get the story taken down and his address out of print. Metter also thought his small $2 million home in mid-country Greenwich was at risk (of what I don’t know) and hired a security guard for $2,139 until he got back from vacation. What Metter left out of his claim was that after I went to his home and his radio station to get respectfully give him a chance to comment and respond on the story we were going to run the next day, he proactively called me that night to comment. I didn’t have his cell phone number so I glad he reached out to paper so we could get both sides of the story. During that on-the-record phone interview he said he was on vacation but wanted to comment about the success of his company SpongeTech and the fact that he thought he’d get the SEC to dismiss or settle his securities fraud case. [We know instead he was arrested.] When Metter realized I was going to tie in the fact that he could lose his WGCH radio station license, after confirming this with the FCC, if convicted a crime by another government agency, he began to threaten to me. Saying if I ran a story on him “he’d never forgets an injury and will hunt me down.” After the story was published he called again to cuss me out and threaten my safety, which I immediately told the editor, McCumber, on the story about. Wow kind of scary right. I even told this to the Greenwich police a few days later and they said I’d have to file a complaint which Greenwich Time. McCumber encouraged me not to do that. Metter’s home address was printed in our story because he listed it in publicly filed documents that where related to the incorruption of his radio business. A fact that was approved, edited, and published by none other than Hearst CT Newspapers Editor in Chief David McCumber. ... ... After I left Hearst, Metter filed his suit, Hearst sent a motion to dismiss in May, it was denied, and there was a trial schedule for 2pm yesterday in Stamford Court. There are two defendants listed in Metter’s suit: Defendant 1) Teri Buhl Defendant 2) Greenwich Time I find these charges ridiculous to the point of harassment of a journalist.... .... I emailed Greenwich Time E.I.C. David McCumber yesterday morning to confirm Hearst will have a lawyer there. Then surprise-surprise at noon, after having to send emails to Hearst legal team because I can’t get a straight answer out of McCumber, I finally get a call from Hearst lawyer Steven Yuhan. Yuhan says that the case has been settled and that he’s received a fax from Metter that the case will be withdrawn. Wow, you’d think someone would have had the professional courtesy to tell me that before I wasted my time preparing a defense. Of course the Stamford Court has no record of this withdrawal as of 2pm today nor will they confirm that Hearst lawyers or Metter have shown the court any proof of a settlement. I asked Steven Yuhan, who settled the case on my behalf without my knowledge or permission, what the settlement was and would you believe it – the man wouldn’t tell me. He said it’s a confidential settlement. I told him that doesn’t sound right considering I am one of the defendants who are supposedly agreeing to settle and I plan to blog about it. Yuhan then said, “You better not do that.”.... ....Here is about the only fact I do know. The online version of the story, which ran February 9th on the cover of the Greenwich Time, magically doesn’t have Metter’s address in it any longer. But photos of the front and back of his home on One Tinker Lane, remain on line..... Greenwich Roundup - http://greenwichroundup.blogspot.com/

RESPONCE TO A RECENT EMAIL TO GreenwichRoundup@gmail.com

Dear {**********} Redacted,

I am sorry for the delay in responding to you, I know you sent two emails so far. We have been getting flooded with emails from parents and taxpayers about the Hamilton Avenue School students.

There are a lot of emails about no school books and supplies for Hamilton Avenue Children.

I am trying to keep up with all the news tips, but unfortunately I am blind in one eye and the left eye is crossed, which makes it difficult to hunt and peck on the key board with one finger.

Often I have to greatly magnify the type on the Greenwich Library computers in order to read materials, often this leads to the Wildly excited or active and frantic or frenzied type on this blog.

If you or anyone else would like to submit an article directly to Greenwich Roundup all you have to do is send an email to...

GreenwichRoundup.Newsfeed@blogger.com

Articles can be submitted anonymously, because of the vindictive nature of some school and political officials in Greenwich.

I will eventually read and respond on all of the email news tips concerning Hamilton Avenue School. I am about a quarter of the way through the emails.

So please submit your articles directly to ....

GreenwichRoundup.Newsfeed@blogger.com

Please post anonymously or better yet come up with a sarcastic byline

New England has a long and storied history of publishing anonymously

For example there are revolutionary heroes such as Ben Franklin who at 12 he became an apprentice to his brother James, a printer. When Ben was 15, James created the New England Courant, the first truly independent newspaper in the colonies.

When denied the option to write to the paper, Franklin invented the pseudonym of Mrs. Silence Dogood, who was ostensibly a middle-aged widow. The letters were published in the paper and became a subject of conversation around town. Neither James nor the Courant's readers were aware of the ruse, and James was unhappy with Ben when he discovered the popular correspondent was his younger brother.

Another example is Thomas Paine who was an English pamphleteer, revolutionary, radical, classical liberal and intellectual. He lived and worked in Britain until the age of 37, when he migrated to the American colonies just in time to take part in the American Revolution. His main contribution was as the author of the powerful, widely read pamphlet, Common Sense (1776), advocating independence for the American Colonies from the Kingdom of Great Britain, and of The American Crisis, supporting the Revolution.

Later, Paine was a great influence on the French Revolution. He wrote the Rights of Man (1791) as a guide to the ideas of the Enlightenment.

What a brave and wonderful man.

sincerely,

Brian

Hi,

I would like the name and phone number of someone I can speak to that owns/runs this website.

Thanks and Best Regards,

I'd Bet Betty "You Can Trust Me" Sternberg and her failed school administrators would like to know who this currently elected PTA Official is, but they are not going to find out who ********** {Redacted}is. Betty "You Can Trust Me" Sternberg had better let these mothers test those modular classrooms, because "Hell Hath No Furry like a mother protecting her small child."

If the Politican's and Officials want to avoid the Raw And Ravaging Fury Of Mother's Protecting Thier Small Children, they had better put an end to this School Board Cover UP.
