A Georgia man has been sentenced to serve nearly three years in federal prison for sending a letter threatening to kill President Biden and to blow up the White House, prosecutors said.
MACON, Ga. — A Georgia man has been sentenced to serve nearly three years in federal prison for sending a letter threatening to kill President Joe Biden and to blow up the White House, prosecutors said Thursday.
Ball sent letters using someone else's name to a variety of local and county government offices and officials, including judges and law enforcement officers, in March 2021. The FBI began investigating and Ball was identified as a suspect after a threat letter signed with the same name and containing a white powdery substance was received at the federal courthouse in Macon, prosecutors said.
The letter was turned over to the Secret Service after it was received on March 30, 2021, by the White House mail sorting facility.
