DoomsdaysCW<p>'Weird' Newspaper Could Taint Jury Pool in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DAPL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DAPL</span></a> Case, Court Told</p><p>The Strange Case of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnergyTransfer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnergyTransfer</span></a> v. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Greenpeace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Greenpeace</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RedWarriorSociety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RedWarriorSociety</span></a> <br> <br>By <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BrendaNorrell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BrendaNorrell</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CensoredNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CensoredNews</span></a>, Dec. 13, 2024</p><p>"A newspaper that mysteriously appeared in the mail boxes of Morton County residents could taint the jury pool in the upcoming case of Energy Transfer v. Greenpeace. It is the latest strange development in the case filed against Greenpeace, Red Warrior Society and water protectors over the protest of the Dakota Access Pipeline.<br> <br>"Now, eight years later, Energy Transfer's $300 million lawsuit filed against Greenpeace, known as a SLAPP lawsuit to silence protesters, is slated for North Dakota Court in February. Besides all this, the pipeline has been on a fishing expedition serving the media and water protectors with third-party subpoenas to extract their information. </p><p>"Central ND News, the 'weird' newspaper targeting Standing Rock Water Protectors, and promoting the Morton County Sheriff, has generic bylines called 'staff reports.' The funders are a conservative group promoting pipelines. It was mailed to Morton County from Chicago, Illinois.<br>Everett Jack, an attorney representing Greenpeace, said during a Monday afternoon hearing. 'We should have the right to figure out who sent it when they did and why.'"</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2024/12/weird-newspaper-could-taint-jury-pool.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2024/12</span><span class="invisible">/weird-newspaper-could-taint-jury-pool.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReaderSupportedNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReaderSupportedNews</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoDAPL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoDAPL</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/StandWithStandingRock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StandWithStandingRock</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterProtectors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WaterProtectors</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MortonCountySheriff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MortonCountySheriff</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CentralNDNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CentralNDNews</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Conservative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Conservative</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SilencingDissent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SilencingDissent</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CriminalizingDissent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalizingDissent</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CriminalizingDissentIsAutocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalizingDissentIsAutocracy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CorporateInterests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CorporateInterests</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Corporatocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Corporatocracy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BigOilAndGas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BigOilAndGas</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SLAPPs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SLAPPs</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SLAPP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SLAPP</span></a></p>
