Chad Allen Haeberle was sentenced to 52 months in prison for threatening Representative Josh Brecheen, and appealed the sentence the next day. The threats prompted Brecheen and his family to take additional security measures.
Federal prosecutors said Chad Allen Haeberle sent Representative Josh Brecheen multiple threatening emails between December 2024 and July 2025, including a threat to murder him. Haeberle was sentenced on September 30 to 52 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release on each conviction, to be served concurrently. Court records show he filed an appeal the following day.
The article says Haeberle’s threats led Brecheen and his family to take additional security measures because they feared Haeberle would harm them. Haeberle will remain in custody pending transfer to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
