The judge in Stone's case ordered his lawyers to explain why they didn't tell her sooner about Stone's book, which includes a new introduction criticizing special counsel Robert Mueller.
On Friday night, Jackson ordered Stone to clarify when the book would be released and why it wasn't brought to her attention sooner. She quoted one of Stone's lawyers during a Feb. 21 hearing when they outlined what they thought a gag order should say:"[Stone] should not be talking about this Court. He should not be talking about the special prosecutor. ... There are a lot of reasons why somebody may feel like they should be talking about things like that.
In the book's new introduction, Stone addresses his testimony to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence about the hack of the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 campaign and the subsequent release of stolen emails via WikiLeaks. Stone wrote in the introduction that he had asked for his testimony to be public"so that the American people could judge my veracity and see the partisan nature of my inquisitors and their trick questions, but this request was denied.
