Jay Allen Johnson was sentenced to 32 months in prison after pleading guilty to two counts of threatening to murder the senators, federal prosecutors announced Friday. He will also pay a $5,000 fine.
Sen. Raphael G. Warnock . The man posted messages on Parler, a conservative social media platform, including some claiming he had a gun and “a bunch of guys all armed and ready to deploy,” prosecutors said.
through a GoFundMe page, adding he is coming “with a vengeance,” court documents show. On several occasions, Johnson identified himself in the messages, prosecutors said, and claimed the senator was ruining the country. Law enforcement traced the cellphone used to make the calls to Johnson, prosecutors said. FBI agents arrested him on Oct. 4.
In an April 2 sentencing memorandum, Johnson’s attorney, Jason A. Weiner, said that his client’s “health is poor” and that he wouldn’t have been able to carry out the threats. He added that Johnson was taking painkillers for his various ailments. Weiner said his client was also self-medicating with alcohol to cope with the pain and with his post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety “from his turbulent childhood.”“Mr. Johnson was not himself,” Weiner wrote.
