'Prepare to die' Trump adviser Stone texted witness, trial jury hears - Reuters

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Prosecutors on Thursday unveiled threatening text messages by U.S. President Donald Trump’s adviser Roger Stone to radio host Randy Credico in which Stone urged Credico not to testify about their communications over Stone’s efforts in 2016 to learn when WikiLeaks might release more damaging emails about Trump’s rival Hillary Clinton.

“Prepare to die ...” Stone wrote in one text to Credico that also included an obscenity. “You are a rat.”
===================================================
A little witness intimidation is a good start toward getting a mistrial. I understand this is a typical Roger Stone tactic.

Prepare to go to jail Roger.
 
like gangbangers in Baltimore.
 
I forgot, have Trumpettes already disavowed this guy and pretended they always hated him, or are they going to start doing that today?

Gang bangers in Baltimore don’t coordinate smear campaigns in presidential elections with agents of foreign governments.
 
Perhaps as in happier days, Stone and Manafort can buddy-up again. This time in a prison cell.

It isnt and they dont. You seem to feel that your role here is to make sweeping generalizations about people you know nothing about. Since we already have plenty of those here, perhaps the hive will give you a new assignment

I mean, despite the fact that this is clearly witness intimidation, he's not going to jail.

Trump says he only hires the best people, but these people either in jail, going to jail, and are all crooks. Threatening to kill people is a new low however.

Yup. They'll be given their narrative soon enough, though. Then they'll regurgitate it. Probably something about Deep State blah blah blah Obama, but Hillary blah blah blah

Unfortunately you are probably correct.

If an average person on the street did this it wouldn't even make news he would just go to jail...

Fredo stone
 
This is old news. It's not a death threat, and is a partial quote taken out of context.

But the chickens, of course, will continue to cluck.
