Judge Jails Leslie Bacon For Refusing To Testify
Seattle AP reports 19 year old antiwar activist Leslie Bacon was jailed for contempt after refusing to answer a federal grand jury on the Capitol bombing. Judge William Goodwin ordered detention until she answers or the March term ends, despite defense claims of narrow immunity and plans to appeal to the 9th Circuit. Bacon had previously been ordered to testify about the New York bank bombing and faced confrontational questions about meetings, travels, and conversations with listed individuals.
