Yeah. This is police harassment, plain and simple. Piggies! Also: http://www.kingcounty.gov/courts/SuperiorCourt/judges/cayce.aspx http://www.kingcounty.gov/

  Actually, it's the judge and the prosecutor who are on the hook more for this use of Cyberstalking (and likely ultimately terrorism laws) to umask a critic using their First Amendment rights. The prosecutor is at risk for losing their qualified immunity, since he is using his position to commit a civil rights crime.

    Prosecutors have absolute immunity which is incredibly difficult to overcome. Even falsifying evidence doesn't seem to do it unless there's a "pattern of abuse" which is practically impossible to prove. http://www.scotuswiki.com/index.php?title=Pottawattamie_County_et_al._v._McGhee_et_al.#Argument_Preview http://www.scotuswiki.com/index.php?title=Pottawattamie_Coun...

      Action is sometimes taken against prosecutors who abuse their position, though. Mike Nifong comes to mind: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Nifong http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Nifong Granted, the behavior does have to be pretty egregious, but at least these people aren't (always) above the law.

      Prosecutors do not have absolute immunity when it comes to crimes that are only possible with their office. If they do something bad in a case, they have absolute immunity, but if they break the law under the guise of law enforcement, they don't. Same as cops.

  Hey, just because police behave badly, that's no reason to start insulting pigs!
