Court hears arguments over church bell in Phoenix
Arizona Republic: “In May 2009 Phoenix Municipal Court Judge Lori Metcalf told the church, Cathedral of Christ the King, to pipe down . . . She also found the church’s leader, Bishop Rick Painter, guilty on two counts of disturbing the peace. He received a 10-day suspended sentence and three years’ probation . . . ‘These cases are important because no pastor should be convicted for peacefully exercising his religion,’ [Erik] Stanley said. ‘That’s what this whole thing boils down to.’”
