Woman Sentenced for Threatening Congresswoman | Indianapolis News
Description
A 28-year-old Indiana woman, Shayla Addison, just got 27 months in federal prison for sending violent, bomb-threat texts to Rep. Nancy Mace — including explicit plans to blow up a building — in retaliation for Mace’s official duties. Mace, the first woman elected from South Carolina, says her office has received over 1,400 threats this year. Addison’s not a first-time offender — she’s got prior convictions for intimidation and invasion of privacy, including threats to shoot up a restaurant after her ex’s new girlfriend got pregnant, and even poured gasoline on her mom’s front steps in 2023. After prison, she’ll be on supervised release for three years — and the judge? U.S. Chief District Court Judge James R. Sweeney.
