Poplawski Internet Rants Denied By Judge Manning

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) -- Richard Poplawski has been posting several racist rants and comments on his online blog.

Soon after they were discovered, a 41-page report was submitted to Judge Manning proposing that all of the comments be allowed to be viewed by the jury during the trial.

Judge Manning denied the proposal.

KDKA Radio's Robert Mangino spoke with former federal prosecutor and current defense attorney Alex H. Lindsay Jr. from the Lindsay Law Firm, on his reasoning for this decision.
