JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — A Florida state prison inmate already serving a three-decade sentence will serve an additional one year and three months in federal prison for threatening to kill a federal judge and his family. Court records show that 35-year-old Curtis Brown was sentenced Tuesday in Jacksonville federal court. He pleaded guilty in December to threatening to murder a federal judge in retaliation for performing his official duties and mailing a threatening letter. Court documents indicate Brown was serving a sentence for conviction on multiple drug charges in the Florida State Prison in November 2021 when he sent a threatening letter to a federal judge’s chambers.
