OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A Missouri man has been indicted in federal court on charges he threatened to kill a U.S. district judge in Nebraska.
Jeffrey Phillips of St. Genevieve, Mo., was charged Tuesday with threatening a federal judge and mailing a threatening letter to the judge.
Court documents say Phillips mailed a letter in July to a U.S. district judge in Lincoln that contained a white powder. The letter claimed that the powder was anthrax and included threats against the judge and his family.
If convicted, the 37-year-old Phillips faces up to 10 years in prison, a $250,00 fine and three years’ probation.
