A Michigan man was arrested Tuesday and charged with threatening to kill individuals associated with a political action committee (PAC) fundraising for the election.
Christopher Pierce, 46, is charged with one count of making a threatening interstate communication, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Michigan said.
According to court documents, on Oct. 2, Pierce allegedly sent two emails threatening to injure or kill people associated with the PAC in response to fundraising communications.
"I guarantee I can find each and every one of your [expletive] organizees. And we will turn you [expletive] inside out. . . . Now you better stop or I promise you this is badly for all of you [expletive] and we won'tinvolve [sic] the law," Pierce allegedly wrote in the first email.
"You will shut down your entire organization or it will be shut down for you. 90% of the members of [named organization]... are trained killers. . . . It paints targets onyour [sic] backs and the backs of your families. Your call centers have been located. Don't make these boys and girlsgo [sic] to work," Pierce allegedly wrote in the second email.
