The Justice Department issued the following press release.
A Ridgeland man was sentenced to two years in prison for making threats in interstate commerce, announced U.S. Attorney Darren J. LaMarca and Special Agent in Charge Jermicha Fomby of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
According to court documents and statements made in court, in July 2021, Robert Wiser Bates, 39, placed phone calls to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, and left voicemails for CDC Director Rochelle Walensky that were threatening in nature. Through the investigation it was determined that Bates made similar threats towards Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Disease at the National Institutes of Health. The root of his anger was due to the COVID-19 vaccination program.
Robert was indicted by a federal grand jury and he pled guilty on December 19, 2022.
This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Kimberly T. Purdie prosecuted the case.

If a person makes the same threats against a civilian nothing happens. Those laws protect the ruling class alone.
I don't know if there are subjectively more lunatics these days, or if the amount of news and social media at our finger tips just makes the mental illness more visible.
Concerning, none the less.
"Threatening in nature", like Fauci's Vax program wasn't threatening? Jokevich still can't come into the country for a tennis match.
I recall being threatened many times over the course of the pandemic. If I didn't take several shots that I didn't want or need, I was going to lose my job and be outcast from society...and if I didn't wear a mask, I was threatened with expulsion from airports, grocery stores, etc.
Sound familiar to anyone else?
@8:50 put your tinfoil hat back on before the GOVERNMENT infiltrates your weak mind.
8:58, I think it's the drugs. Lots and lots of drugs.
@8:50 you are right, but it starts when we have to convolute traffic on the interstate because the police are on the roadside - but no one has to move over or slow down for you or me fixing a flat (very few slow down, everyone moves left creating havoc). Also happens when we have crimes with different penalties against police/government officials than against the rest of us. It all blossoms from there.
Wow, I suspected, but never really knew, how many experts on virology lived among the population of central Mississippi. Please put this expertise to good use and apply at UMMC or other medical centers so you can keep us all safe.
OK, I'll restart it, We're all gonna die no matter what.
@9:30 and 12:20 - you two sound just like my wife who gets her information from the msm. She is about as reasonable as the media.
@9:30, that was impressive, your insinuation that @8:50 is stupid. Now give us all the reasons you think he’s wrong.

All of us that complied with being vaccinated and even welcomed the vaccination....we saved your ass. There is now some emerging evidence that masks probably didn't work as well as we all thought, but the vaccinations worked.
@1:35 Let me guess - you get your information from Fox News and Facebook.
3:08 I'd love to hear what all else you believe! Your post is truly remarkable!
By taking the shot, you didn't save anyone's ass. In fact, the list of refutations that "the vaccines worked" is so long, it would take hours to type them here. Have you been following ANY news in the last 18 months? For starters, do you still believe that those who took the shot can't get Covid / can't transmit Covid? The answer to that question alone will reveal your capacity to reason......
Looks like half or so of the commentors on this site have similar medical educations as this clearly wise, well educated gentleman (based on his mug shot) received and practices. CDC officials being threatened by this idiot because his knowledge over best known practices exceeds theirs is indicative of where much of the country is today. And if his mug shot is not scary enough, that fact is.
Among my immediate family and coworkers, I believe two us out of about 12 got shots and multiple boosters. We're the only two that haven't had (significant) down time and misery from COVID in the last two years.
That's all the proof I need, and I'm grateful for them. Everyone is free to make their own choices about their own health, as far as I'm concerned.
