Judgment in libel case against Horne in King’s Court
The court, after deliberation, upheld the charge of libel against Joni Horne and ordered punishment fitting the offense. The judge explained that the information was explicit, condemning Horne for publishing, with his name attached, a pamphlet aimed at inflaming public opinion and defying justice. The Attorney General argued the crime was aggravated by trial conduct and language, and recommended the pillory as the most effective remedy against libellers.
