California man made 10,000 harassing calls to government offices, officials say
You'd think they'd go after him after 1000 or so calls, but they waited until he made 10,000 before arresting him.
I'm just kind of mystified that someone would make that many phone calls to rage against the government.
If I was going to call, I'd just ask them if they had Prince Albert in a can.
A Southern California man has been arrested on suspicion of making more than 10,000 harassing phone calls to government offices, including some that included death threats against those answering the phone, federal prosecutors said.
Robert Stahlnecker, 48, was arrested at his home in the Mojave Desert town of Twentynine Palms on Friday and held in federal custody after making an initial court appearance, the U.S. attorney’s office said.
He was charged with threatening federal officers and employees, making interstate communications with the threat to injure a person and anonymous telecommunications harassment.
