Daniel Baker was convicted Thursday of making threats to attack right-wing provocateurs he believed were destined to descend on Florida’s Capitol building to take it over.
After two days of trial in which the 33-year-old Army veteran testified on his own behalf, jurors deliberated for about four hours before returning two guilty verdicts on federal counts he used the internet to transmit two true threats to kidnap or injure.
Baker, who has been held in federal detention in Tallahassee since his arrest, will be sentenced on Aug. 16.
He didn t react to the unanimous verdict issued by 12 jurors. However, friends of his in the gallery had expressions of shock on their face. They left the courthouse without commenting on the verdict. Both prosecutors and defense attorneys declined to comment.
