Judge imposes gag order on Roger Stone

Описание: (21 Feb 2019) U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson has imposed a gag order on Roger Stone after he posted a photo on Instagram of her with what appeared to be crosshairs of gun.
Stone said during a court hearing that he made an egregious mistake by posting the photo.
During the tense hearing Thursday, Stone said there was no excuse for the post Monday.  
Jackson wanted Stone in court Thursday to show why she shouldn't modify or revoke his bail or implement a full gag order in his case.
Jackson said she believes Stone would "pose a danger" to others in the case if she didn't institute the order.
The political operative and self-described dirty trickster has pleaded not guilty to charges he lied to Congress, engaged in witness tampering and obstructed a congressional investigation into possible coordination between Russia and Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
