Just curious as to whether or not might know if it's illegal (at least in  
  the  
  state of North Dakota) to babble the name of somebody who is [suspected of  
  being] a paid informant to local law enforcement.  I've got a friend who is  
  wondering this because he ended up in a really crappy situation that is only  
  getting worse because of a two-faced informant who uses his paid informant  
  status with the local law enforcement as a way to get legal immunity locally  
  (for impunity against his drug habits), as well as a legal bludgeon to use  
  his  
  kids from his marriage as a pawn against his wife that he is [physically]  
  separated from.  He's a real piece of work, even has a two story house in  
  the  
  city that he works in where he hides his children from their mother (despite  
  their still legal marriage and no restraining orders between them) that is  
  packed full of weapons despite his status as a multiple felon.  
    Any information you might have on this kind of situation would be greatly  
  appreciated by my good friend who has ended up in a really shitty raw deal  
  kind  
  of situation.
