Breitbart Crony James O’Keefe May Be Violating a Court Order - Update: Nope, He Isn’t
ThinkProgress notes that Andrew Breitbart’s partner in fraud, James O’Keefe, is attending Ralph Reed’s Faith and Freedom Conference in Washington DC — even though he’s on federal probation and was ordered by a judge not to leave New Jersey to attend the event: Is James O’Keefe violating a federal court order?
Controversial right-wing activist James O’Keefe is in Washington DC today attending the Faith and Freedom Conference. O’Keefe is currently on federal probation after being found guilty in a case where “he was accused of trying to tamper with the phones in Sen. Mary Landrieu’s office.” Days ago, the AP reported that a federal judge had denied his request for permission to leave New Jersey to attend the conference. You can read the order here. Although it’s possible the judge reconsidered his decision, there are no reports that occurred.
False alarm; it turns out that a new order granted permission for O’Keefe to attend; see the ThinkProgress link above.
