FLINT, Mich. (AP) - A Flint man accused of making threats against members of Congress won’t have to serve any additional time behind bars.
Randall Dellinger was sentenced Tuesday to time already served, more than a year after pleading guilty to making a threatening call to the office of U.S. Sen. Carl Levin in 2012.
Dellinger was in custody for three years while doctors worked to improve his mental health.
When Dellinger was arrested, investigators said he also had made threatening calls to U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow and then-U.S. Rep. Dale Kildee.
Defense attorney Richard Korn says it’s “fair and reasonable” to now keep him out of prison. He says Dellinger has many health problems, including cancer that started in his bone marrow.
