I'm working on Item 2 below. Jim Bell ================================= To: Frederick Burroughs <riburr@shentel.net> Subject: next to go on trial: Jeff Gordon and is co-conspirators. (was: Re: The Second Cypherpunks Show Trial ) From: Zooko Journeyman <zooko@wildgoose.tandu.com> Date: Mon, 12 Apr 1999 16:09:51 -0600 cc: Cypherpunks <cypherpunks@ns.minder.net> In-Reply-To: Message from Frederick Burroughs <riburr@shentel.net> of "Mon, 12 Apr 1999 07:41:10 EDT." <3711DBD6.78EB1609@shentel.net> Sender: owner-cypherpunks@Algebra.COM If there is anything to the speculation below, then perhaps J.G.&Co. are open to be hit where it hurts. Also Tim May's complaints about SSN-disclosure and character defamation might gain legal traction? And the unsigned, vaguely threatening messages that have been received by JYA and many other list members, both recently and immediately after the JB arrest? There are two possible developments that could yield a really happy ending here: 1. CJ's aquittal after a 1st Amendment defense. 2. Some good evidence of official misbehavior turns up and is leveraged into a solid criminal case against the loose cannons. Regards, Zooko
