John P. Arnold, the robe-wearing man at Cheshire superior court announced a crackdown today and threatened everyone in the courtroom wearing a hat with arrest. Additionally, he attempted to suggest that liberty lovers were my “group”, and that I was their spokesman. Also he claimed that it was not a conflict of interest that both he and the prosecutor work for the same team called “the state”.
Cheshire county prosecutor John Webb also claimed that it wasn’t his fault that the court took over six months to bother to schedule a trial. Arnold will issue a ruling on the speedy trial issue by Monday morning’s jury selection. If his ruling on my motion to dismiss for lack of speedy trial is any indication, he’ll continue on with the aggression.
It was an interesting day in court, and video is to come. Tomorrow David Vandenberg is asking liberty-lovers to witness his hearing regarding the media ban in Keene superior courtat 1:30pm.
