COURTHOUSE,
May 18 รข In the U.S. District
Court for the Eastern District
of North Carolina, Richard
David Warren was arrested and
presented on May 7 for mailed
threats against ICE officials.
He is charged with three
counts of threatening to
murder a federal official and
two counts of mailing a
threatening
communication. Magistrate
Judge James E. Gates on May 7
granted an Oral Motion to
Unseal Case. But
ten days later on May 17, when
the Indictment is clicked on
in PACER, it returns "Sealed
documents are no longer
available in CM/ECF or via
PACER. Please contact the
court directly to request
access to the document."
Apparently the indictment was
never unsealed, at least not
for the public (which is what
unsealing means or should
mean). Inner City
Press on May 17 wrote to the
Court and its Chief Judge
Richard Ernest Myers II, to
whom the case is assigned,
asking that the Indictment be
belatedly
unsealed. On May 18 the
Clerk of Court called Inner
City Press to inform that the
Indictment had been unsealed.
And sure enough, it was on
PACER (while on CourtListener
the link still said, " The
threats were
to T.L. of
DHS, and T.H.
of the
Executive
Office of the
President. We
aim to have
more from the
Eastern
District of
North
Carolina, for
now thanking
its Clerk of
Court. Watch this site.
