A 59-year-old supporter of Donald Trump has been arrested for threats against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Fulton County Sheriff Pat Labat, Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter Tamar Hallerman posted on social media Monday.
Arthur Ray Hanson II, of Huntsville, Alabama, was indicted for the threatening voicemails sent related to Trump's racketeering case in which he, along with 18 others, were charged in a wide-reaching conspiracy to overthrow the election in Georgia in 2020.
The MAGA supporter has been charged with transmitting interstate threats to injure Willis and Labat, said the reporter.

Hanson left one voicemail threatening: “watch it when you’re going to the car at night, when you’re going into your house, watch everywhere that you’re going" and “when you charge Trump on that fourth indictment, anytime you’re alone, be looking over your shoulder."
According to Hellerman, Willis said that her daughters, her father and her ex-husband were all doxxed online, which is where users on a website share their address and other contact information. The understanding is that someone will use that information to enact violence.
She has spoken out the threats but has remained largely quiet and speaking out primarily about the case and doing her work. The death threats also come with racist undertones in the vitriol, Hallerman reported.
