From Times Wire Reports

A federal magistrate judge ordered an ex-convict with an apparent grudge against the court system to stand trial for allegedly plotting to blow up the federal courthouse in Chicago.

Judge Morton Denlow said prosecutors had established probable cause in the case against Gale William Nettles, 66, who was arrested last week with what prosecutors said was a pickup truck containing 1,500 pounds of fertilizer.
