2017 threats against emailer
ProPublica reported that Kasowitz may be ineligible for a federal security clearance due to his alcohol abuse in 2017. An unidentified individual sent an email to Kasowtiz urging him to “resign now,” after reading the articles.
Marc replied with a series of profanity-laced emails, some of which took a threatening tone, writing, “I’m on you now. You are fucking with me now Let’s see who you are Watch your back, bitch,” as well as “Call me. Don’t be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you don’t call, you’re just afraid.” And later: “I already know where you live, I’m on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.”
The emailer forwarded the emails to the Federal Bureau of Investigation to report the threats, and Kasowitz subsequently issued a statement saying “The person sending that email is entitled to his opinion, and I should not have responded in that inappropriate manner…This is one of those times where one wishes he could reverse the clock, but of course, I can’t.”
