Tampa dentist gets 2 years in prison after making more than 100 online threats
Richard Glenn Kantwill threatened rape and murder in messages to 40 victims, including politicians and election officials.
A Tampa dentist who pleaded guilty to sending online threats to multiple people, including a presidential candidate, was sentenced to two years in prison Tuesday.
Richard Glenn Kantwill was arrested in June after prosecutors said he sent more than 100 online messages threatening injury or death, even after FBI agents told him to stop.
Kantwill, 61, pleaded guilty in November to sending threats to three people in 2019 and 2020 and to an election official in 2024, equaling four counts of interstate transmission of a threat. Each charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison.
FBI officials characterized Kantwill’s actions as an “almost year-long campaign of terror” during which he targeted 40 people, hurling racial and homophobic slurs at some.
