An Iowa school principal was arrested on first-degree harassment charges two days before his wife filed a restraining order against him, court records show.
Justin Blietz, 40, was booked into a Linn County, Iowa, jail in connection with the alleged harassment on Saturday, March 14, according to online court records reviewed by PEOPLE.
Blietz allegedly told a woman he would slit her throat and "watch her die," according to a criminal complaint obtained by The Gazette and KCRG.
It wasn't immediately clear who the subject was of his alleged harassment.
Blietz is the founding principal of a charter school in Cedar Rapids, according to his LinkedIn profile. His profile on the webpage of Cedar Rapids Prep, which opened last August, says he lives with his wife and children and "creates a culture where all students feel safe, supported, and connected."
Blietz's Facebook account shows him posing with his children and in holiday photos.
