The justice department has charged a Florida man for threatening to "call up my Russian-Ukrainian hit squad" to kill his political opponent, the Republican congressional representative Anna Paulina Luna, in 2021. The department unsealed an indictment against 41-year-old William Robert Braddock III of St Petersburg, Florida on Thursday, alleging that on 8 June 2021 he made multiple threats to hurt and kill Luna " identified as Victim 1 in the indictment " in a phone call with another individual, Victim 2. Braddock and Luna were candidates in the 2021 Republican primary election in Florida's 13th congressional district. Victim 2 was identified as a private citizen and acquaintance of Luna. In 2021, the Associated Press reported that Luna alleged in a Florida court that Braddock was stalking her and had threatened to hurt her.
