A Texas woman has been charged with threatening to kill Tanya S. Chutkan, the federal judge in Washington who is overseeing former President Donald J. Trump's prosecution on charges of seeking to overturn the 2020 election. The woman, Abigail Jo Shry, of Alvin, Texas, called Judge Chutkan's chambers on August 5 and left a voice message attacking the judge with a racial slur, according to a criminal complaint unsealed on Friday. In the message, Shry told Judge Chutkan, "If Trump doesn't get elected in 2024, we are coming to kill you, so tread lightly, bitch." She also issued a threat against Representative Sheila Jackson Lee, a Black Democratic congresswoman. Shry has been ordered to be jailed and is represented by the Houston public defender's office. This comes after Judge Chutkan cautioned former President Trump about making "inflammatory statements" that could harm the integrity of the case. Trump has a history of verbally attacking judges and others involved in criminal cases brought against him.
