More Coverage on Eric McDavid Case

Since my last post of news coverage on the McDavid case,

"Role of FBI informant in eco-terrorism case probed after documents hint at entrapment, Guardian, 1/13/15.  This includes excerpts from a hand-written love letter from McDavid to "Anna" and emails exhanged between them, which were first disclosed to the McDavid defense team in November 2014.

"Another view: Mistake was made, but no misconduct in eco-terror case," SacBee, 1/17/15.  U.S. Attorney Ben Wagner's opinion piece criticizing the fairness of the SacBee's coverage of the McDavid release proceedings.

"After nine years in prison, accused eco-terrorist adjusts to sudden release," SacBee, 1/17/15. The Bee's third front-page story on McDavid's release.

More still to come.
