My question involves criminal law for the state of: Federal and/or unknown state
CNN made some very specific threats against a non-public figure to exact a specific behavior from them acknowledging the life threatening repercussions against them that they could cause if he doesn't keep in line with their wishes. How is this or is this not extortion?
Could this also be a tort?
