Bartender Accused Of Plotting To Poison John Boehner
Bartender Accused Of Plotting To Poison John Boehner
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/01/13/john-boehner-death-threat_n_6466540.html
An Ohio man has been indicted for allegedly threatening to kill House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), WCPO and the Associated Press report.
The man, Michael Robert Hoyt, served Boehner drinks at the Wetherington Golf & Country Club in West Chester, Ohio for more than five years, but was fired in October, according to WCPO.
According to the criminal complaint, Hoyt allegedly called police in late October and told them to tell his father that he was sorry. The call prompted police to visit Hoyt's home, where he allegedly told an office that he was Jesus Christ and was going to kill Boehner because he was responsible for Ebola and had mistreated him. Hoyt reportedly told police that he wished he had time to put something in Boehner's drink and that he had a loaded gun in his home. Police took control of the weapon in his home, and Hoyt reportedly agreed to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
WCPO reported that agents who later searched Hoyt's home found an assault rifle magazine and ammunition.
