“Dateline” NBC Leads to Gag Order in Jimmy Snuka Case
As noted, the prosecution in the Jimmy Snuka murder/manslaughter case requested and was granted a gag order in the case, meaning neither side is allowed to speak publicly about the case as long as it’s pending.
According to PWInsider.com, NBC’s “Dateline” expressed interest in the case and that led to the gag order issued today.
Chief Deputy District Attorney Charles Gallagher III initially made the request, saying he was upset about comments made by Snuka’s Defense Attorney Robert Kirwan about the case after the last hearing. At that time, Kirwan referred to the death of Nancy Argentino as an “unfortunate accident”.
