Despite Threats, Activists Hand Out Jury Rights Pamphlets in Philadelphia
On April 8 around noon, liberty lovers met at 601 Market in center city Philadelphia with Julian Heicklen to hand out jury nullification pamphlets to the public. 17 officers of the law also showed up and threatened to shove a camera down one man's throat and charge him with interfering with a police investigation.
