Former Los Angeles Deputy Mayor of Public Safety Brian K. Williams (61) was charged with threatening to bomb Los Angeles City Hall last year in a single-count information. Williams agreed to plead guilty to the felony charge, which carries a statutory maximum sentence of ten years in federal prison. Williams used the Google Voice application on his personal cellphone to place a call to his city-issued cellphone and then falsely reported: "Bomb threat: I received phone call on my city cell at 10:48 am this morning. The male caller stated that he was tired of the city support of Israel, and he has decided to place a bomb in City Hall. It might be in the rotunda.' In fact, Williams received no such call and had made the bomb threat himself. At no time did Williams intend to carry out the threat. Ten years is a severe punishment for the instant offense and the federal judge will most likely punish him on the lower end of the US Sentencing Guidelines.
Frustrated with unqualified US support for Israel and the genocide in Gaza which has killed over 50,000 Palestinians, wounding or maiming over 100,000, Deputy Mayor Williams seemed to think the publicity from his bomb threat would bring attention to this grave injustice. Of the billions of dollars the US sends to Israel every year, the State of California contributes a total of $609,845,124; the most out of any other state. Source: Link One
