Maxine Waters last year was indicted Friday by a federal grand jury in California, prosecutors said. Brian Michael Gaherty, 60, was arrested last week, and a grand jury returned an indictment against him on eight counts related to the threats, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles said in a statement. Attorneys listed in federal court records as representing Gaherty did not immediately respond to requests for comment Friday evening. The threats were made in four voicemails in August and November.

Gaherty is free on bond in Texas, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. An arraignment in California has not been scheduled. Threats directed against members of Congress have been on the rise for years but dipped slightly in 2022. Capitol Police have said they investigated more than 7,500 threats or potential threats against lawmakers last year. In 2021, when the Jan. 6 riot took place, threat cases jumped to 9,625. There were only 3,939 cases investigated in 2017. Phil Helsel Phil Helsel is a reporter for NBC News.
