A Texas man convicted of threatening Georgia election officials online after the 2020 election was sentenced to two years in prison Wednesday.
Chad Christopher Stark, who pleaded guilty to one count of a sending a threat using a telecommunications device in August, also was sentenced to one year of probation. The officials he targeted were not named in court documents.
“As I see it, our country was on fire, and what Mr. Stark did was add fuel to the fire,” district Judge J.P. Boulee said in an Atlanta courtroom on Wednesday.
Although it might be deemed cruel and unusual, I think at a minimum he should’ve been banned from social media/social solicitation sites for a minimum of five years.
