The jury in the “Baby Body Parts” trial of activist and journalist David Daleiden has delivered a blow to undercover journalism, declaring that secret filming is now illegal and can leave journalists open to massive damages.

Peter Breen, a lawyer for Mr. Daleiden, said the judgement is a direct threat to undercover journalism in California and across the country.
“Undercover Journalism now comes with a $2 million price tag,” he said.

ReplyDeleteEveryone one on the jury had or payed for an abortion.
ReplyDeleteTestament to how screwed up our country is. Here we have an expose’ that uncovers criminal activity of a particularly morbid and greedy kind and some nutcase liberal prosecutor and judge have convinced a jury exposing and reporting dastardly crimes is a crime. Completely bassackwards.
ReplyDeleteJury of planned parenthood cronies.
ReplyDeleteAppeal it to the higher court.
ReplyDelete12:08, the jury wasn't allowed to render a verdict. The judge stepped in front of them with a guilty verdict and dismissed the jury. That's able as illegal as a judge can get! This will be appealed and done over with a different court.
