A Utah man has been arrested and now faces charges in Washington’s federal court for making a series of threatening phone calls to a Palestinian advocacy organization.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for Washington announced on Monday that it had charged Kevin Brent Buchanan, 62, of Tooele, Utah, with making interstate threats against an unspecified Palestinian advocacy organization. According to a criminal complaint submitted on Nov. 14 and unsealed this week, Mr. Buchanan left five voicemail messages with the Palestinian advocacy organization between Oct. 31 and Nov. 2, in which he described the group as “the enemy” and it’s members as “dead people walking.”
