A man from Colorado, Teak Ty Brockbank, is set to plead guilty in federal court after being accused of making repeated threats against top elections officials in Colorado and Arizona, as well as judges and federal law enforcement agents. Brockbank, 45, has been in jail since his arrest in August and is expected to change his plea from not guilty to guilty for one count of making interstate threats.
According to court documents, Brockbank expressed views that violence against public officials was necessary, leading to multiple threats against individuals such as Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold and former Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs. In one post, Brockbank allegedly mentioned putting these officials to death, hoping it would incite fear and division among others.
