Funny how the judge fails to mention that while he had Marshals around to protect him at all times, he failed to protect the jurors' identities, even though the violents threats and acts against the jury started as early as the jury selection phase.

Judges are routinely using numbers for jurors, rather than names, in high profile tax protest cases, but Schiff's Judge simply chose not to, even though the prosecutors asked him to do so several times.
Demo.
