As part of the Grand Jury investigation, Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett has filed a subpoena against Twitter to reveal the names of two anonymous Twitter accounts (HT John Micek).

Out of sheer coincidence, these two Twitterers (or Tweeters) – BFBarbie and CasablancaPA – have been harsh critics of Mr. Corbett. Hopefully Corbett doesn’t come across the awful truth that I am the one behind the Twitter handle @NathanBenefield

Click here for the full subpoena or read it below.  Will update on any developments.
