Governor Nixon threatened

Friday, April 2nd, 2010

Governor Nixon is one of at least 30 governors who has received a threatening letter from a group calling itself the Guardians of the Free Republics. The letter tells Nixon and other governors to leave office within three days or be forcibly removed.

The governor’s office has given the letter to the Highway Patrol. Patrol spokesman Tim Hull says the patrol has passed the letter up the chain. [Story by Bob Priddy, Missourinet.com]
