A New York man threatened to kill two senators for supporting Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the U.S. Supreme Court, federal prosecutors said. Ronald DeRisi, 74, of Smithtown, N.Y., was charged Friday with threatening federal officials. DeRisi was ordered to be detained because he “could pose a danger to the community.”The senators who received the threatening messages were not named by officials. U.S. Capitol Police said DeRisi left 10 voicemails at the senators' offices. They found ammunition and a BB gun at DeRisi’s home after a search warrant was executed, The New York Times reported.
