A federal judge on Tuesday barred U.S. President Donald Trump's former adviser, Roger Stone, from making any posts on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram after prosecutors accused Stone of violating a gag order by discussing his case on social media.

U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson said she would not detain Stone for violating the order, saying jailing him would only generate more media attention.
