Florida Dentist Sentenced for Threatening Public Figures
**Tampa, FL** – A Florida dentist was sentenced to two years in prison for making threats to public figures, an election official, and others over several years. Richard Glenn Kantwill, 61, from Tampa, initially made these threats between September 2019 and July 2020.
Court documents reveal Kantwill sent over 100 threats via social media, email, and text, targeting individuals based on their political commentary. The targets included an author, a religious figure, and a television personality. From April 2022 to April 2024, Kantwill sent additional threats to four public figures, including an election official in another state in February.
In November, Kantwill pleaded guilty to four counts of interstate transmission of a threat. The case was announced by officials from the Justice Department’s Criminal Division and the FBI.
The FBI conducted the investigation, while the prosecution was led by Trial Attorney Aaron L. Jennen of the Criminal Division’s Public Integrity Section and Assistant U.S. Attorney Abigail K. King for the Middle District of Florida, with support from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Colorado.
