US Judge Issues Gag Order in Trial of Former Trump Adviser Roger Stone

by Reuters

   A U.S. judge on Friday limited the ability of people involved in the
   trial of Roger
   Stone, a former adviser to President Donald Trump, from speaking
   publicly about the case in a way that may influence the outcome.

   The order by U.S. District Judge Amy Berman prohibits lawyers involved
   in the case from speaking with news media, and prohibits other
   participants, like Stone himself, from making statements that may
   affect the case when they are near the courthouse.
