Judge Releases Most of Rosenberg Testimony

September 2, 2008

So reports AHA Today, the American Historical Association’s blog (which I highly recommend checking out if you haven’t already):

In a ruling issued August 26th, U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein ordered the release of most of the grand jury testimony from the case of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, and a related case against Abraham Brothman and Miriam Moskowitz. The release will cast fresh light on one of the most celebrated spying cases of the Cold War; allowing scholars and journalists to explore the relationship between citizens and the government in that period.
