Threatening emails

In March 2005, Barry Clinton Eckstrom of Upper St. Clair, Pennsylvania wrote threatening emails to Jason Hawes. Hawes then alerted the FBI in Providence , Rhode Island. When the e-mails threatened President George W. Bush , the Secret Service was turned on. Eckstrom also used Hawes' name to send emails to female members of TAPS threatening them, rape and then killing them. Under the supervision of federal officials, Eckstrom used a library computer in Bethel Park , Pennsylvania to send an email in Hawes' name to Roto-Rooter headquarters in Cincinnati . In this email he threatened to shoot employees there. Eckstrom also posted a message on the Department of Homeland Security website, also on Hawes’s behalf, announcing that he would kill President Bush. Before he could send the message, he was arrested. In January 2006, Eckstrom was sentenced to two years in prison for these activities.
