Man who threatened judge in Michael Flynn case gets 18 months in prison
Caporusso was arrested last August and reached a deal with the government in April in which he pleaded guilty to one count of Influencing, Impeding, or Retaliating Against a Federal Official by Threat.

"Back out of this bulls**t before it's too late, or we'll start cutting down your staff. This is not a threat. This is a promise," Caporusso said on the voicemail.
The voicemail was played during Monday's sentencing proceedings.
Caporusso showed no emotion when it was played, but later said that he had been "shocked and embarrassed" when he first heard the recording of the message.
Well, at least he's embarrassed now.

(8,329 posts)Actually show up, attack the capitol and the members of the House and Senate while sitting, get 8 months. Something is clearly wrong, actions (participating in the attack on the Capitol) speak a lot louder than words (threatening a judge) yet the sentences seem to be reversed.
