Federal prosecutors Seek Court Action to Stop Bloggers Threats
29th Aug 2007

Federal prosecutors in Philadelphia sought court action to force John Dunkle, 72, to remove postings he made on his website calling for readers to kill a former abortion provider.

His website skyp1.blogspot.com also targeted a former clinician for the Philadelphia Womans Center and states "while it does not sound good to say go shoot her between the eyes, it sounds even worse to say let her alone," according to the request on his website.

Prosecutors want the court to force John Dunkle, 72, of Reading, to remove the material from his Web page and prohibit him from publishing similar messages containing names, addresses or photographs of health clinic staff members.
