OKLAHOMA CITY – An Oklahoma City man has been sentenced to 42 months in prison for making a hoax threat of a mass shooting.
David Aaron Jacobs, 43, emailed the El Reno Police Department and a local news station with the threat. At the time Jacobs made the hoax threat, he was on federal supervised release after serving the term of imprisonment for his previous federal convictions for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. Based on his new crime, Jacobs’s term of supervised release was revoked on August 17, 2017, and he was sentenced to an additional term of 36 months’ imprisonment.
Senior U.S. District Judge David L. Russell also ordered Jacobs to pay $22,996.39 in restitution to law enforcement for the costs of responding to the hoax and imposed three years of supervised release upon his release from prison.
