Man Gets 2-Year Term for Threatening Reagan
A man who stormed into Ronald Reagan’s Bel-Air estate and told Secret Service agents that the former President was the “Antichrist†who must be killed was sentenced Monday to a two-year prison term.
U.S. District Judge Edward Rafeedie recommended that the Bureau of Prisons place Gregory Stuart Gordon, 33, in a lockup with facilities for mental health treatment. Rafeedie also ordered Gordon, who was convicted in March on one count of threatening a former president, to serve one year of supervised release and to pay a $50 fine.
Gordon climbed over a fence onto the Reagan estate, ran up the driveway, in the front door and out the back before Secret Service agents stopped him. The agents said he told them, “Ronald Reagan is the Antichrist. He must be killed and I must kill him.â€
