A U.S. judge said that she is considering imposing a gag order on President Donald Trump’s longtime adviser Roger Stone, who has spoken numerous times to news organizations in the week since he was charged by Special Counsel Robert Mueller in the ongoing Russia investigation, according to Reuters.
The judge cited a number of “extrajudicial statements by the defendant” and noted that “this is a criminal proceeding and not a public relations campaign.”
If the judge were to impose the order, Stone would still be able to talk to the media about issues unrelated to Muller’s criminal case against him.
