This guy makes Orly Taitz look sane. According to him, it was a "freedom of speech stand" that got him locked up, as he explains in his book Taking a Stand
According to Judy:
As an American concerned about our future generations, I have stood up for our liberties and freedoms in many ways. Some of them perhaps unpopular as my freedom of speech stand at the Marriott Center in front of 23,000 people on stage and millions watching via satelite, which landed me in prison for 8 years and a 3 year parole.
Cody Judy: fighting for your right to stand in front of 23,000 people and yell "I've got a bomb."
LOL.
Here's the whole insane story:
Events of February 7, 1993
While preparing to speak at a “fireside” lecture being held at Brigham Young University's Marriott Center on February 7, 1993, then President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles Hunter was confronted by Judy, who rushed onto the rostrum and threatened Hunter and the audience of 15,00017,000. Judy carried a briefcase that he claimed contained a bomb, and held what appeared to be a detonator-like device. Judy demanded that Hunter read a three-page document that supposedly detailed God's plan for Judy to lead the church, which Hunter refused to do. After assaulting an elderly man who had approached him asking him to stop what he was doing, Judy ordered everyone to leave the rostrum except for Hunter; however, Hunter's bodyguards refused to leave. The audience spontaneously sang “We Thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet”, during which a man in the front row sprayed Judy with pepper spray. Students from the audience and then security personnel overtook him. After Judy was taken away, Hunter delivered his prepared remarks, a talk on facing adversity entitled, “An Anchor to the Souls of Men.” The police later examined the briefcase and determined that it contained only books and papers and the detonator-like device was a telephone wrapped in electrical tape.”
But I'm sure he's a real American patriot now, since he showed up at Manning's PR stunt and babbled some stupid stuff.
