During these calls, Diaz disclosed his identity and issued explicit threats of violence and bombings. He informed a congressional staff member that he was threatening to bomb the Senator’s office. Furthermore, he left a voicemail for a judge in a New Mexico state court, threatening to detonate explosives in the judge’s building and to harm the judge.

Additionally, Diaz contacted the Pennsylvania Governor’s office, asserting that he had planted a bomb in the Governor’s residence and threatened to kill those present inside.
