Former Agilent employee pleads GUILTY to a Federal crime: San Francisco Daily Journal (JUN 9, 2003) A Guilty Plea In Varian Case By Craig Anderson Daily Journal Staff Writer "SAN JOSE –A Colorado engineer accused of making online criminal threats against two former Varian Associates research scientists has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of trying to dissuade a person from assisting a criminal prosecution. Cameron Moore was accused of sending a series of e-mails and Internet message board postings threatening Michelangelo Delfino and Mary Day. He originally was charged with a felony. The plea agreement is for a lesser offense, although Delfino’s attorney said Moore gave up the chance to avoid a criminal record entirely by refusing to cooperate with the couple. Attorney Jon Eisenberg, of Horvitz & Levy in Oakland, said he had a number of questions for Moore concerning his possible connection with the plaintiffs in a defamation case – now on appeal – involving Delfino and Day. Moore declined to answer, and the U.S. attorney’s office did not recommend him for a diversion program, Eisenberg said. Instead, Moore will be sentenced in September to at most a one-year jail term and $100,000 fine. He may receive no time behind bars a t all. U.S. v. Moore, 03-20081. Moore’s attorney, Vicky Young of Palo Alto, could not be reached for comment Friday. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeff Nedrow also could not be reached. Delfino and Day were found liable in 2001 for defaming Varian, a company executive and company manager. They have posted more than 20,000 messages, mostly on Yahoo message boards, making allegations about the plaintiffs and mocking them." geocities.com
