Ohio man charged in soliciting murder of U.S. military members
CLEVELAND | BY KIM PALMER
A 25-year-old Ohio man has been indicted on multiple federal charges for posting the names and addresses of United States military members on social media sites and calling for their deaths, officials said on Wednesday.
A six-count indictment was filed on Tuesday against Terrence McNeil of Akron in U.S. District Court that included three counts of solicitation of a crime of violence and three counts of threatening military personnel, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Cleveland said in a statement. No arraignment has been scheduled.
McNeil's attorney could not immediately be reached for comment.
If convicted, McNeil faces a maximum of 20 years for each count of solicitation and a maximum of five years in prison for each threat count.
The hospital worker was arrested on Nov. 12 by U.S. Marshals in Akron.
