Death Threat
With all the fighting over Tom DiNapoli's appointment, we now have a death threat. A letter received at the comptroller's office this morning threatened both DiNapoli and Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, according to state police.
There was also some concern about a substance inside that has been sent for testing. The unsigned letter had an Albany postmark. Here's the text, released by the comptroller's office:
"You weren't elected by the people. I see you walking by the capitol. Forgive me, I'm so depressed. I'm going to give you the Huey Long treatment. Do you know who he was? I was a marksman in the army. Two shots that's all. Please forgive me — I'm so depressed. Silver has got to go too."
