The U.S. Department of Justice has charged a 22-year-old woman from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, Penelope R. Convertino, for threatening U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn. The threat, which was captured in a voicemail received by one of Blackburn’s staffers in may, included violent language indicating intent<\/a> to harm the senator. The FBI arrested Convertino on charges of making a threat to murder a federal official with the purpose of intimidating and interfering with Blackburn’s official duties. Authorities emphasized that threats against public officials<\/a> are unacceptable and that those responsible will be held accountable<\/a>. If convicted, Convertino faces up to 10 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. This incident comes shortly after Blackburn announced her candidacy for governor.
