Back to EpisodesJudge Halts Mayor's Testimony in Protection Order Hearing
Description
In Reno Justice Court, a judge halted Mayor Hillary Schieves testimony during a protection order hearing. George Eddie Lorton, a recurring mayoral candidate, accused blogger Michael Leonard of sending a threatening Breaking Bad meme, causing him to fear for his familys safety. The judge only allowed Lorton and Leonard to testify. The dispute originated from a campaign email fallout earlier this year, leading to a cease-and-desist letter from Lorton and the alleged threatening image. The judge renewed the temporary protection order, with the next hearing scheduled for May twenty-seventh.
