“The writer was upset that not enough people, in his opinion, are wearing masks when they are out and about,” the sheriff office said.
Sunshine State police were not messing around, either.
“We realize these are stressful times, but there is no excuse for making threats like this,” the sheriff office wrote on Facebook. “It’s not a joke. It’s not just a bad day. It’s a crime. We will ALWAYS take them seriously and you will go to jail.”
Kovner was booked on felony charges relating to making a written threat of a mass shooting. His bond is set at $30,000.
