0:00.0	Hi, everyone. It's four o'clock in New York. It's happening again, a chilling and alarming
0:10.9	glimpse into the threat environment that prosecutors handling cases involving the ex-president
0:16.0	are facing right now. In the federal indictment of a man who allegedly made threats to Fulton
0:20.8	County District Attorney Fanny Willis and Fulton County Sheriff Patrick Labat. Arthur Ray
0:26.1	Hanson, the second was charged on Monday for making threats to Willis and Labat back in August,
0:31.8	just days before Willis charged Trump and 18 others in a sweeping Rico case alleging a quote,

1:50.4	who does get to hear a fraction of them because people are threatening me in that way. But I have
1:55.4	in the last probably two months over 150 threats that have come into the office. They come in
