He is charged with cyberstalking and four counts of transmitting a threat in interstate commerce, the Justice Department said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wahl is already under indictment on unrelated charges related to a double<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\/police-and-law-enforcement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <\/a>murder in Alaska, according to the Volusia Sheriff&#8217;s Office.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/kentucky-police-officer-critically-wounded-shooting-released-hospital\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>KENTUCKY POLICE OFFICER CRITICALLY WOUNDED IN SHOOTING RELEASED FROM HOSPITAL<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not every loser threatening violence on the Internet gets caught, but I\u2019m glad one more is getting a dose of reality,&#8221; Chitwood said in a statement Tuesday. &#8220;I am far from the only one getting death threats, and my family is not the only one who\u2019s been targeted and harassed. But I will always be proud to take on hateful idiots and stand up in defense of the community I love.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wahl&#8217;s alleged threats began in March when the sheriff held a news conference discussing the distribution of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/topic\/anti-semitism\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">anti-Semitic<\/a> and pro-Nazi flyers. The first threat sent to Chitwood was on March 31 via email, federal prosecutors said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the email, Wahl allegedly wrote that he was armed with lasers and explosives. The message included links to videos showing someone using a laser to burn a hole through a photograph of Chitwood\u2019s face and holding explosives in front of another photograph of Chitwood, authorities said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just wanted to thank you. Your toothless threats to arrest me for the last 3 weeks have woken me from my funk,&#8221; Wahl allegedly wrote in the email, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox35orlando.com\/news\/volusia-sheriff-mike-chitwood-joshua-wahl-indictment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox Orlando<\/a> reported. &#8220;Did you know that a laser like that can get hotter than the sun very fast? You have inspired me to continue my work. So now (I&#8217;m) sitting here, armed to the teeth with binary explosives, 37mm launchers, lasers that blind for life in 1\/15th a second and (anti-level) 4 tungsten tip ammo with weapons with binary triggers, and it&#8217;s all (because) of your toothless threats toward me the last 3 weeks.
