That is one of the good things about Freerepublic and bad about
Operation Rescue.
They may distort facts...
Maybe the jail time is deserved -- if they were indeed stalking -- and there were convictions handed down in the 1990s about stalking abortionists...
I am unfamiliar with the FACTS of the case...
It clearly may be more than a 1st Amendment case -- but rather a case of stalking...
It is one of the greatest things about this forum that it’s members rarely take anything at face value and are willing and able to investigate further. I’m still trying to dig around to find out how the sentences got extended, but I suspect that they involve failure to appear and failure to surrender penalties.
