Claim 2: “a federal judge's refusal to examine whether the SPLC was vindictively prosecuted”
CORROBORATED
Multiple sources confirm a legal battle involving the SPLC and the Justice Department. Specifically, NTD reports that a judge rejected the SPLC's bid to dismiss charges, stating the nonprofit failed to show the prosecution was vindictive, and a legal motion specifically addresses the 'vindictive prosecution' doctrine in this case.
