Florida Man Sentenced To Three Years Prison For Bomb Threats

A Florida man has been sentenced to three years prison for sending bomb threats to a nuclear power plant and government facilities.

David Wayne Willmott Jr., 25, was sentenced Wednesday after pleading guilty in April to three counts of making threats to use an explosive device. 

Willmott emailed bomb threats in to targets including a nuclear power plant, an elementary school, a sheriff's office, two courthouses and two airports in central Florida between 2014 and 2015, prosecutors say.

A U.S. Attorney's Office release says the sentence will be served consecutively to a six-year state sentence imposed in 2016 for two arsons and a hoax bomb threat.

The threats came from a public library computer in Citrus County, where Willmott lived, records show.
