A Donald Trump supporter from Alabama who admittedly “lost it” when it seemed inevitable that the former president would be booked at the Fulton County Jail and have a mug shot taken in his Georgia RICO case is now going to federal prison for close to two years for threatening voicemails he left for DA Fani Willis (D) and the local sheriff.
Arthur Ray Hanson II, now 59, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge J.P. Boulee on Tuesday in the Northern District of Georgia for making threatening phone calls to the Fulton County Government’s customer service line and leaving messages for Willis and Fulton County Sheriff Patrick Labat in August 2023, a week before Trump and his allies were indicted for racketeering and other crimes in connection with attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
