A man in northern New York has pleaded guilty to federal charges Wednesday over sending threatening voicemails to Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene last March
Joseph Morelli pleaded guilty to three counts of interstate threatening communications in federal court in Syracuse, New York, according to court records. Morelli, who plainly identified himself in the voicemails, left seven threatening messages at the congresswoman’s office and threatened to harm any law enforcement if they responded to his calls, according to the complaint.
The man reportedly has a history of making harassing and threatening calls, prosecutors told a judge last month, including to a local city judge and the lawyer representing his wife in a custody dispute. Prosecutors asked the court to remand Morelli into custody ahead of his sentencing, calling him a danger to the community, but the judge allowed Morelli to continue to be released on home confinement pending his sentencing on June 1.
