Parkville man found guilty of O’Malley e-mail threat

Baltimore Sun

A 44-year-old Parkville man accused of sending a threatening e-mail to the governor declined this morning to accept a plea offer of probation before judgment and instead went to trial on the charges. He was found guilty by a jury this afternoon.

Walter C. Abbott Jr., a construction worker, asked the judge to sentence him immediately after the jury returned its verdict. Abbott received a suspended sentenced of six months in prison and two years of unsupervised probation. In addition, Abbott will have to pay a $500 fine and was ordered to stay away from Gov. Martin O’Malley and his family.

Upset with the governor’s policies on illegal immigrants, Abbott had e-mailed his complaints to the governor and other public officials but never received any real response, according to his wife, Linda Abbott.
