Michigan man who threatened Dems charged with gun crime

SEBEWAING, Mich. (AP) — A mentally ill Michigan man accused of making death threats against Democrats and people who are LGBTQ has been charged with illegally possessing guns. Randall Berka II lives with his parents in Sebewaing, Michigan. The FBI says he posted various written threats on a YouTube channel, specifically mentioning President Joe Biden and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The FBI says Berka’s mental history history make him ineligible to possess guns. Berka’s mother told the FBI that she bought four firearms for him but now believes he should be locked up. Berka is due in court Friday.
