Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team alerted Judge Amy Berman Jackson on Monday that Roger Stone posted an image on Instagram that might have violated his gag order over the weekend.

The post in question was a picture of Stone under the words: “Who framed Roger Stone?” It also linked to a page for donors to contribute to the fund for Stone’s legal defense.

Stone is currently facing charges for lying to Congress and obstructing justice as a part of Mueller’s Russia investigation. After he posted a photo of Judge Jackson next to an image of crosshairs with a conspiratorial caption about the case against him, she issued a gag order against him, barring him from speaking publicly about his case, citing concerns about public safety.
