BAINBRIDGE IS., Wash. (AP) – A retired Air Force major is asking a federal court to declare our state’s cyberstalking law unconstitutional.
He says he’s been threatened with prosecution – and up to a year in jail – for repeatedly making online posts that criticize a community activist.
He’s represented by a University of California law professor who recently challenged a similar law in Ohio.
The posts are about Bainbridge Island resident who founded a memorial to the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.
