Stone's recent gag order in his case lodged by Mueller 'inspired a steady rain of support,' former Trump political advisor Michael Caputo said.
The online legal defense fund for President Donald Trump's longtime confidant Roger Stone met its $100,000 target in March, even after a strict gag order in Stone's criminal case halted the Republican operative's campaign of criticism against special counsel Robert Mueller.
Stone's"Guts Fund" was launched that same day, on fundraising website GoFundMe. Less than four months later, the goal to raise $100,000 toward Stone's legal bills had been achieved, Caputo said Thursday."I will mount another campaign in the future as Roger's trial approaches," Caputo said.
Stone was given a partial gag order by Jackson on Feb. 15, barring him and his lawyers from making statements to the media and in public that risk prejudicing the case against him. But after Stone posted a photo on Instagram showing Jackson's face next to what looked like a rifle scope's cross hair, Jackson ordered him back to court, where he apologized for the"stupid" mistake.
CNBC reported that two of Stone's websites, which were used in part to raise funds for his defense against Mueller, have recently been deleted.
