KEY WEST, Fla. — A Miami man is accused of threatening to kill a Florida Keys judge, his defense attorney and a state prosecutor.
Jerome Sanders, 44, wrote that he was going to kill all three in a Nov. 2 letter addressed to the judge, Monroe County Sheriff's Office spokesman Adam Linhardt said Thursday.
The letter was written from the Monroe County Detention Center, where Sanders was jailed on drug-related charges.
"I will not tolerate threats made against any member of the criminal justice community," Sheriff Rick Ramsay said in a statement. "This suspect is exactly where he belongs — in jail."
