Ariz. Illegal Immigration Law Judge Threatened

[Scurrilous]

Federal Judge Received Messages from People Against Ruling Who "Expressed Their Displeasure in a Perverted Way"

<snip>

"Authorities say a federal judge in Phoenix has been getting some threats since her ruling on Arizona's controversial immigration law.

David Gonzales, the U.S. Marshal for Arizona, says U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton has received thousands of phone calls and e-mails since her preliminary injunction Wednesday that put key provisions of the state's immigration law on hold.

Gonzales says some of the messages sent to Bolton are positive, but others are "from people venting and who have expressed their displeasure in a perverted way."

Gonzales says his agents are taking some of the threats to Bolton seriously. He refused to discuss any extra security measures, which U.S. marshals routinely provide federal judges.

Arizona officials have appealed Bolton's ruling."
