A Florida man has pleaded guilty in connection with threatening to kill a Supreme Court justice.
The guilty plea from 43-year-old Neal Brij Sidhwaney of Fernandina Beach stemmed from a call he made to a Supreme Court justice in July, the Justice Department said in a news release Monday.
He faces up to five years in federal prison on one count of transmitting an interstate threat. A sentencing date has not yet been set.
Prosecutors said that Sidhwaney identified himself by name in an expletive-infused voicemail and repeatedly threatened to kill the Supreme Court justice, who is not named in court documents.
Sidhwaney warned that if the justice alerted deputy U.S. Marshals, he would talk to them and “come kill you anyway,” according to court documents, which did not indicate what prompted Sidhwaney to make the threat.
Is it??? Anyone calling public servants with death threats I’m gonna go ahead and disagree with
When the SC publishes ethical rules legalizing bribery, they’re inviting anyone with a sense of justice to take matters into their own hands.
Shit take. Anyone calling in death threats is ethically bankrupt at the very least. What justice is there in murder?
For legal purposes, this is only a joke.
It’s really the only way for a normal person to effect the SC. They are given lifetime appointments, it doesn’t say how long those lifetimes have to be.
Checks and balances, yo.
