USA V. TURNER (Retrial) Threat to assault or murder federal judges “Shock Jock” Hal Turner was retried in March 2010. This time, in an unprecedented move, the Government called all three 7th Circuit Judges, who were allegedly “threatened” by the editorial published by Turner, to the stand. Attorney Nishay K.

After several days of deliberations, the Jury could not come to a unanimous decision and a mistrial was declared.
