The dispute erupted after Lorton’s lawyer accused Leonard of attempted extortion over campaign finance reporting, followed by Leonard’s “I am the danger” meme referencing Walter White. The judge ruled the meme was a genuine threat, not just edgy banter, and upheld Lorton’s safety concerns. Leonard’s lawyer says they’ll appeal but applaud the judge’s acknowledgment of Leonard’s First Amendment rights. Lorton, running in the June 9 primary, called the order well-deserved given Leonard’s history of instability and concealed carry permit. Meanwhile, Leonard is also suing another candidate, Council member Devon Reese, over social media posts. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
