Right wing shock jocks enabling teh crazy: FL woman accused in school threats arrested
Right wing talk show hosts always act flabbergasted when stuff like this happens, but after years of pumping bile, stirring shit, and doing the right wing shock jock schtick they shouldn’t be surprised that people look at them as the prime enablers of the crazy.
Ellisa Martinez, 48, of New Port Richey, Fla., surrendered to FBI agents near Los Angeles, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Miami said. She is accused of sending an e-mail on Nov. 10 to WFTL 850 AM conservative talk show host Joyce Kaufman, who was tapped to be U.S. Rep.-elect Allen West’s chief of staff.
The e-mail said the writer liked that Kaufman had encouraged people to “excercise our second amendment rights” and that “something big” would happen at a government building in Broward County, maybe a school.
Martinez called the Pompano Beach station later that morning and claimed that her husband, Bill Johnson, was going to go to a school in Pembroke Pines and start shooting, according to federal authorities who said they traced the call.
