Though never integrated into a terrorist investigation of any merit, anti-war and anti-death penalty groups were nonetheless being illegally 'monitored' (like a heartbeat?) by Maryland State Police.

Have a look at what the lurked upon are up to: National Campaign for Nonviolent Resistance, Baltimore Coalition Against the Death Penalty, Committee to Save Vernon Evans.
