Senator Rosen, who is Jewish, received a series of antisemitic rants on her voicemail.<\/p>\n

\n

Numerous obscenities were uttered in the messages, according to federal prosecutors. Included in these messages were statements calling Rosen a monster, un-human, subhuman, and a vermin. Miller also left messages threatening her family and questioned if Rosen has \u201cany family members that [were] Israeli settlers,” saying they were guilty of \u201cwar crimes.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“She lets her own family members kill these Palestinians in the West Bank,\u201d one of Miller’s messages reportedly said.<\/p>\n

The first group of messages were left between October 11 and 19.<\/p>\n

Arrest and Charges<\/h2>\n

The messages led authorities to charge the suspect, John Anthony Miller, 43, with threatening a federal official. He was arrested last Thursday and appeared in federal court on Friday. Miller is next scheduled to appear in court on November 13 before U.S. Magistrate Judge Elayna J. Youchah. If convicted, Miller could spend a year in prison.<\/p>\n

Miller also appeared at the federal courthouse on Las Vegas Boulevard on October 18 and demanded to see Rosen, who has an office in that building. Security refused to let Miller see her.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The messages began a few days after Hamas<\/a> massacred some 1,400 victims in southern Israel. That led the Israeli military to target Hamas leadership and infrastructure in the Gaza Strip<\/a>. There have been numerous casualties<\/a> on both sides.<\/p>\n

Serious Threats<\/h2>\n

Rosen is past president of Congregation Ner Tamid, which is Nevada\u2019s largest synagogue. She also co-chairs the Senator\u2019s Bipartisan Task Force for Combating Antisemitism.<\/p>\n

Threats against public officials should be taken seriously,”<\/strong> Rosen\u2019s office responded about the incident. “Senator Rosen trusts the U.S. Attorney’s office and federal law enforcement to handle this matter.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Miller\u2019s court-appointed public defender, Ben Nemec, told The Daily Beast<\/em>\u00a0he couldn\u2019t comment on the case.<\/p>\n

The FBI, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the U.S. Marshals Service, and the U.S. Capitol Police investigated the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
