A northern New York man pleaded guilty Wednesday to leaving a number of menacing voicemails for Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene , including one in which he promised to show her “what violence truly is,”. Joseph Morelli, 51, faces up to five years in prison nearly a year after he was indicted last April on charges of transmitting interstate threatening communications. Morelli left seven threatening voicemails at Greene’s office in Washington, D.C.
In one message, Morelli said, “I think I’m gonna have to show you, to your face, right up front, what violence truly is and I don’t think you’re gonna like it,” according to an FBI agent’s affidavit. The affidavit recounts how Morelli threatened to “pay someone 500 bucks to take a baseball bat and crack your skull.” In another voicemail, Morelli said, “I really think I’m gonna have to cause you harm—physical harm. I’m gonna have to take your life into my own hands.
