Man accused of threatening judges was a paid informant for the FBI

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

A lightning-rod Internet blogger and radio host out of New Jersey was a paid FBI informant, once turned over a silencer to the feds and even passed on information about a threat against President Obama.

But none of that is enough to get him out of jail now, a federal judge ruled Monday.

U.S. District Judge Martin Ashman said Hal Turner -- accused of threatening to assault and murder three federal judges -- is still a danger to the community.
