A Contra Costa County Superior Court jury has had found 51-year-old Erik Triana guilty of threatening the life of State Senator Scott Wiener over a proposed bill to allow minors to be vaccinated without parental consent.
MARTINEZ -- A Contra Costa County Superior Court jury has had found 51-year-old Erik Triana guilty of threatening the life of State Senator Scott Wiener.
Triana was under investigation and ultimately arrested after he sent Wiener a threat through the senator's 'contact me' portal on his website that read:"Vax my kids without my permission and expect a visit from me and my rifle." When Wiener testified in the case, he told the jurors that this threat was unlike others his office receives because of the reference to the late San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and the specific threat to use a gun.
Deputy District Attorney Stephanie Kang said that Triana sent the message on January 22 -- days after Wiener introduced a bill proposing to allow minors 15 years or older to seek medical care or treatment including vaccines without parental consent.Investigators were able to trace the message Triana sent back to a computer he used at his place of employment in Pleasanton.
