A federal grand jury has indicted a man from Marionville on three counts of threatening members of the House of Representatives.
The indictment says Kenneth Hubert, 63, threatened to assault and murder both Northwest Missouri Congressman Emmanuel Cleaver and Eastern Tennessee Congressman Steve Cohen.
Documents from the United States Attorney of the Western District of Missouri say that Hubert threatened Cleaver on January 7th, just after the Capitol riot on January 6.
Federal prosecutors say he threatened to assault and kill Cohen on May 6, 2019.
Hubert is currently in federal custody.
