19-Year-Old Knicks Fan Threatens "Death To James Dolan" On Twitter
A Knicks fan from Staten Island was arrested and charged with harassment after allegedly sending a series of insane and threatening tweets concerning Knicks owner James Dolan.
Presumably frustrated with his Knicks-basketball experience—which stretches back to the late-nineties/early aughts—19-year-old Johnny Giamella tweeted death threats along with pictures of himself holding a gun to the camera and a sharp object to his neck. The threatening tweets included the messages "James Dolan, it's officially time to die" and "[d]eath to James Dolan."
There's also this:
And in a bizarre photo, a naked Giamella is seen holding a gun over his penis, according to a criminal complaint.
A criminal complaint was filed against Giamella, whose father is a cop, when Dolan's security noticed the tweets and alerted the NYPD.
