Judge denies Greene's request that NY man pay for security fence after threatening her

A federal judge on Tuesday denied Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) request that a New York man convicted of threatening her pay the roughly $65,000 cost of a fence the congresswoman installed at her home.

Joseph Morelli was sentenced to three months in prison after pleading guilty to three counts of transmitting interstate threats over voicemail messages he left at Greene’s Washington office in March 2022.

Backed by the Biden administration’s Department of Justice, Greene demanded $66,632 she spent constructing a security fence and reconfiguring her closed-circuit television system at her home in Georgia using campaign funds.
