	! Jim Bell Jim Bell, convicted crypto-criminal and assassination politics popularizer Summary The U.S. Department of Justice wants me to testify against Jim Bell, in a criminal trial beginning the week of April 2 in Tacoma, Wash. Two Treasury Department agents served me with a trial subpoena on March 8 (ignoring federal regulations that say negotations with media must take place before a subpoena is served). Bell is accused of stalking federal agents, including using the Internet to perform background checks on ones he believed to be harassing him, and has plad not guilty. Wired News has retained Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, and we filed a motion on March 29 to quash the subpoena. I don't believe that I should be testifying against my sources, and to take the stand on behalf of the DOJ is far from appropriate for an independent journalist. Stay tuned. -Declan McCullagh (March 30, 2001) April 8, 2001 update: The judge denied our motion to quash, and I took the stand but did not answer questions except to say the articles were accurate. See a report. April 9, 2001 update: Here's a list of articles on the trial. November 25, 2001 update: Here's a transcript of my testimony.
