"I know I didn't cause them any harm — physical or otherwise," Mueller told jurors, stressing he called them while they were at their public jobs. He told them he was seeking "jury nullification" of the wiretapping law — which prohibits recording of conversations without all parties' consent.
State Rep. Kevin Warden, R-Goffstown, attended the court proceedings and said afterward that he thought prosecuting Mueller was "a travesty and a total waste of taxpayer dollars."

The judge was remarkably tolerant, allowing Adam Mueller to represent himself and to speak to the jury regarding jury nullification.
