Woman who threatened Rep. Lummis charged with three felonies

A woman who threatened to kill Wyoming Rep. Cynthia Lummis (R) in a voice mail message last year could face up to 15 years in prison.

A U.S. District Court charged local resident Jennifer L. Casebolt with three felonies on Wednesday, one of which stems from a series of harassing phone calls she made to Lummis' office throughout 2009.

According to court documents, first reported Thursday by the Casper Star-Tribune, Lummis allegedly left one message in particular threatening the congresswoman's life.

"You want the f*** same old mother f*** story. I'll get it to you right after I f*** murder you!" Casebolt allegedly said in the message, according to court documents.

Casebolt also faces two other charges, stemming from accusations she mailed a letter containing a suspicious white powder to a local judge last year. The substance was later determined to be harmless.
