LANSING, MI — A Michigan prison inmate charged with threatening to kill the judge who sentenced him will be on trial starting October 30, 2023.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel says 43-year-old Christopher Shenberger sent a letter to Ingham County Circuit Court Judge Joyce Draganchuk in December 2021 in which he complained about potentially being denied parole for not completing a required sex offender program while incarcerated.
Shenberger alledgedly wrote that if he had to serve the maximum 180-month sentence, he would kill people once he was free. Shenberger is charged with a 20-year felony of communicating a false threat of terrorism.
