Well, isn't that strange: the Secret Service taking a strong interest in
the probation violation hearing of Ed Cummings for taking batteries out
of a tone dialer.
Not only were they interested, they testified against him!

mother long asserted Mr. Farrakhan played a role in the death of her
husband. Three members of Mr. Farrakhan's Nation of Islam were convicted.
And just what was so extraordinarily vile about this case?
Its purpose was to tear the black community apart.
Mr. Farrakhan, no fool when it comes to manipulation, joined in her defense.
And: Mr. Fitzpatrick had been a high school classmate of Qubilah Shabazz.
In courting her lifetime of anger at Mr. Farrakhan, he also courted her.
Love.
"A vile and evil seducer," said William Kunstler to the court.
He had proposed to her.
