People v. Nixon (Cal. Ct. App. - June 5, 2025)

It just seems to me a horribly bad idea -- both practically and legally -- to post on your Facebook page "a picture of three Elk Grove Police Department officers with crosshairs superimposed over the faces of two of the officers . . . . accompanied by the words: 'Fuck both of these bitch ass cops and the Elk Grove Police Department. I hope both of you scum bags are killed in the line of duty and your family members are BRUTALLY murdered."

I would think that criminally threatening the police might, just might, get their attention.

And it's even worse when you make these threats while you're on active community supervision after being released from jail for carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle, carrying a loaded firearm, perjury, and unlawfully possessing ammunition.

That'll get you a couple of extra years in prison.
