PEORIA - A Pekin woman faces up to 10 years in federal prison for allegedly threatening President Bush by telling him in a letter she had put anthrax in the note.
Jessica A. Moyer, 21, appeared in U.S. District Court in Peoria on charges of threatening the president and mailing a threatening communication. She said little except to her attorney, Bill Anderson, during the five-minute hearing.
Moyer's address was listed in court records as 4105 N. Brookdale, Apt. 2C3, but Pekin police report no such address.
The indictment was handed down April 20 but unsealed Thursday. It alleges Moyer sent a letter in Tazewell County on March 5 to President Bush. In that letter, she wrote: "Your time is almost through. Yes, that's right. That's a threat. I have enclosed some anthrax and I hope it is enough to kill you and if it is not, I can send someone to shoot you or something. You are not safe."
The letter was addressed to President Bush, the indictment alleges.
Court records did not disclose how authorities learned of the letter or whether it was delivered to the White House. The letter did not contain anthrax, authorities have said.
Anderson said after the hearing his client is a "very nice young girl, and I am very confident she did not intend to hurt anyone."
The attorney also said Moyer has no criminal record.
Moyer was released on a personal recognizance bond pending her July 5 trial date. As one of her conditions, she must report to an officer with the U.S. Probation Office. She could not be reached for comment.
A live one for ya.

Hi!
I know that you most assuredly are NOT "Tricia", but that you are a bored and pathetic individual who repeatedly comes here and preteneds to be involved in, linked to, or related to people featured in articles here.
You are an imposter troll.
And it is ironic that you tell us to grow up, when you're the one here under false pretenses in an effort to assauge your ego.
And write a book, run for office, marry a communist, and sue everybody.
If she were a Congressperson or Senator, then she could have gotten away with any threat.
Maybe Sooooo stupid that she actually seems verrry smart to the jury.
Stooopid jury coming down the pike alert!
We need to start a lits of all threads that clain to have some relative, neighbor, whatever that sign up here and claim to be somehow related to these stupid morons.
JR might need to buy extra disk storage;)
Yeah well, other than that chopping up her parents with an ax thing, Lizzie Borden was, by all accounts, also a very nice girl.
Isn't that the truth. I don't know how many of these I have read on here. There has to be a lot more that I've missed.
