19-year-old threatened Bush's life, created phony Secret Service IDs...
A teenager who was charged last year with threatening the lives of President George W. Bush and other federal officials has again been arrested, this time for manufacturing bogus U.S Secret Service credentials.
Acting on an anonymous telephone tip, federal agents yesterday arrested Peter Bonfiglio, 19, at the New York City residence he shares with his grandparents.
According to a federal criminal complaint, a copy of which you can find below, Bonfiglio admitted to manufacturing and selling the Secret Service IDs and even showed agents the computer and printer he was using to produce the fakes.
As noted in the complaint, the counterfeit credentials bore the name of a Secret Service agent involved in the first federal action filed against Bonfiglio.
In that case, the teenager, then residing in Florida, allegedly made repeated telephone and written threats on Bush's life and warned that he would bomb federal buildings in Sarasota.

Not very bright, is he? The thought never occurred to him that this would get him in deeper trouble? LOL!
Something tells me this guy will never get his own place. ;-)
He may now get a cell with several other mates.
This guy should be weaving baskets in a room with barred windows.
The problem is he probably does have intelligence while being mentally unstable.
What is the psychosis of people who get caught doing something bad, then keep doing it? Is it a form of Obsessive Compulsive behavior? How about that woman who went to jail for having sex with her student, and then the day she gets out of jail, she contacts him and starts sending him pornographic pictures of herself. It's so bizarre.
Hey! What sorta joint is this?
No private cells???
So this guy's some kind of Sopranos wannabe or what?
Maybe bright enough to use a copy machine, but certainly not bright enough to stay out of trouble. Darwin award material.
Interesting beard

Never overestimate the logic of the Left.
Hah. For that matter, I wonder what his FR name is. Certainly been a lot of Bush-hating going on here. Sometimes I wonder if I've stumbled into DU.
He needs to get a job...
Lives "at the New York City residence he shares with his grandparents..."
Find a wall for this kid...
Many mentally unstable people are extremely "intelligent" and skilled in the technical sense.
Their illness, however, overrides everything. One common characteristic is the constant craving for attention and notoriety. Pictures in the newspaper... the "I'm famous" syndrome...
Steve Wozniak of Apple fame used to use an ID he made that looked like a Dept of Defense one. He called it the Dept of Defiance. It allowed him to travel on the airlines for quite a while.
