A New Hope man has pleaded guilty to making terroristic threats for posting on Craiglist that he would bring his rifle for target practice at a Somali cultural event in St. Cloud.
James Scott Miller had already told police he posted the threat in response to a Craigslist advertisement for a Somali cultural night at St. Cloud State University. The St. Cloud Times reports that in court Monday, Miller said he posted the threat to "get a rise out of some people" and that he didn't realize it would cause people to fear for their safety.
The 49-year-old Miller had been in custody since his arrest in late March and was released after his plea. His plea agreement caps his sentence at 90 days. He'll be sentenced at a later date.
