William Robert Dunbar pleads guilty to threatening VP

Bobo sends a link to the story of William Robert Dunbar who we wrote about in September when the Pennsylvania Guardsman threatened to assassinate Vice President Pence. According to the Tribune-Democrat, he pleaded guilty yesterday;

Dunbar allegedly made the threat against Pence while on duty on Sept. 8 as a National Guardsman at the Army National Guard Training Center in Richland Township, according to a complaint filed in September in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, Johnstown Division.

At the time Dunbar made the threat, Pence was scheduled to arrive in Johnstown on Sept. 11 in order to speak at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Stonycreek Township, Somerset County, on the 16th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

He’s looking at a sentence of five years (max) and a $250,000 fine. I’m guessing that he’ll get supervised release for a couple of years.

    Jonn, in addition to any supervised probation he may be awarded, he will become a Class 3 USSS threat who will be monitored forever and who will have a personal friend any time a USSS protectee is in his area.

    Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. He’ll be back on here claiming he was a POW in about 7 years. Bet he wishes he kept his soup cooler shut.

      After being recruited by the CIA for secret assasinations throughout the world.
      They know high speed when they see it.

    William Robert Dunbar is learning that choices have consequences, some of which may haunt one for the rest of one’s life.

      Well, he did join the national guard….

    This boy just ain’t too bright, is he? Even a few functioning brain cells could have kept him out of jail, and eternal law enforcement observation. At least it will be legitimate when he gets the feeling that somebody’s watching him.

    How old his he, like 25?

    Way to go, dumbass, even if you get no time in the slammer you’ll be carrying that felony conviction around for the next 50 – 70 years.

    Hope you like wearing hair nets and plastic name tags, my guess is your future will feature a lot of both. \

    And yes, I want fries with that.

      Maybe he can become a “rapper” since his felony will bring him “street cred” /eyeroll

      Before you condemn him to a lifetime of minimum wage in the fast food industry, can we see if he has the chops to sell software to the federal government?

    I guess his military career is over with.

    Why on earth would anyone waste threats on the Veep? He’s DTrump’s insurance policy.

    Really, the boy’s got a lot to learn.

      Like OWB said, this boy ain’t too bright.

    The USSS doesn’t have too much of a sense of humor when it comes to threatening their protectee. Some people have to learn the hard way.

    Well, as a positive note.

    He only really meant the threat one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer…

      Judging by that mugshot, that ship may have already sailed.

    It’s shocking to see such bullshit from a service member. Then I remember how the previous administration attempted to castrate the military and let dregs like this in.
    A good size portion of those who were allowed to enlist from 2008-2016 are nothing more than a modern version of McNamara’s Project 100,000.
    Hopefully the military can purge them out now an adult is in charge.

      Amen

    I had no idea they stacked garbage that high.
