NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA – BRYANT LAMONT HARRIS, age 46, a resident of Monticello, Mississippi, was indicted for threatening a federal judge in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 115(a)(1)(B), announced U.S. Attorney Peter G. Strasser. If convicted, the defendant faces a maximum sentence of six years imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, three years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment.

According to court records, on or about February 13, 2020, HARRIS called the chambers of a federal judge, and asked how many security officers were assigned to the court because “[he] needed to know how many people [he] need[ed] to take out to get to the Judge.” Prior to this, HARRIS had placed other calls to chambers, and claimed that he was an expertly trained military marksman, and that he “was going to take things into his own hands, watch CNN.”

United States Attorney Strasser reiterated that the indictment is merely a charge and that the guilt of the defendant must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.  

U.S. Attorney Strasser praised the work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in investigating this matter. The prosecution of this case is being handled by Assistant U. S. Attorney G. Dall Kammer, Supervisor of the General Crimes Unit.

Hillary can sell 20% of the United States’ Uranium supply, and take leisurely walks in the woods.

With all the agencies involved etc and all the technology and the ability WE have to track a ‘mad cow’ in a couple of days etc I guess that 6 months-give or take- isn’t all that bad. Or not.

With all the time it takes to build a case etc it is a wonder ANYONE gets to ‘walk’.

“”If convicted, the defendant faces a maximum sentence of six years imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, three years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment.””

WOW - that $100 assessment will sure teach him!

Hi.

From an Opsec/tactical point of view, you lose the element of surprise if you threaten someone.

It’s just better to smile, walk away and turn them into pink mist latter.

And this is exactly what President Trump should have Ordered AG Barr to do when Chuck Schumer THREATENED a Sitting Supreme Court Justice on National TV.

\IT’S NOT TOO LATE, THE STATUTE HASN’T RUN OUT YET

Yep, when I worked in DC I lived next door to a former Secret Service agent that said the same thing. He said it wasn't the kooks sending threatening messages and posting threats online that worried them. They could keep an eye on those folks and the vast majority of them were just harmless blowhards anyway. The ones they really kept them up at night were the ones smart enough, and dangerous enough to never utter a peep about their intentions.

He had a lot of stories about threats you never even heard about on the news. He told one story about a guy they only caught when GWB was running for president because one of the agents noticed he had showed at over a dozen Bush rallies and would always stand off in the distance with a telephoto lens and take photos of the Secret Service agents and security checkpoints. When they raided his house they found he had essentially mapped out all their security cordons and protocols and was a trained sniper. He basically said the only thing that prevented him from succeeding was they got lucky...
