A Madison County man pleaded not guilty Tuesday to charges in federal court in Columbus that accuse him of threatening to kill people in an online abortion support group.
James David Hampton, 40, of London, was arraigned Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio on 10 counts of transmitting a threat in interstate commerce. He was indicted last week.
According to court documents, Hampton searched an “Abortion Support Network” on a social media site in August, then posted threatening comments.
“You are baby murderers… we kill scum like you,” he allegedly wrote. “…I take great pride in hunting scum like you and killing you… We know where you live… your routines… we kidnap your kind… we torture you for information…. I may execute one of you with clamps or poison… but my personal favorite is cutting your throats….”

Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson signs sweeping abortion ban

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KSLA) - Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed an abortion ban Tuesday, March 9.
Senate Bill 6 bans nearly all abortions unless the motherâs life in danger. It makes no exceptions for cases of rape or incest.
Because of that, it was unclear whether the governor would sign it.
âI would have preferred the legislation to include the exceptions for rape and incest, which has been my consistent view, and such exceptions would increase the chances for a review by the U.S. Supreme Court,â he said in a statement.
