On Wednesday, a former journalist was sentenced to five years in prison after confessing that he had called in bomb threats to US Jewish centers as part of an elaborate campaign of cyber stalking his ex-girlfriendn. U.S. District Judge Kevin Castel noted that while the sentencing of Juan Thompson exceeding federal sentencing guidelines, "the level of intensity, the maliciousness" of Thompson's conduct warranted it. Thompson was arrested in St. Louis, Missouri in March. He pleaded guilty in June to cyber stalking and making hoax bomb threats.
