Idaho Man Arrested After Mailing A Letter

There are few things more wholesome than mailing someone a letter. Just something about signing your name, licking the envelope, and placing it in the mailbox as it awaits its destination.

It's cute, right? Cute until you're making threats in said letter. You can probably see where this is going.

Mailing a letter in Idaho is not illegal. Why did this man get arrested?

Buckle up, buckaroos! Let's see if you can figure it out before you get to the payoff.

A 34-year-old Kootenai County man has been sentenced to five years in jail after simply sending a letter in the mail. The problem is, the letter included a threat sent to Idaho Governor Brad Little, concerning a North Idaho Judge.

For the record, you very much cannot threaten someone in a letter through the mail. Notice how the dude landed himself in jail? That's what happens man. That's what happens.

You probably feel like you have a good grasp on what you can and cannot send through the mail, right? Yeah, we felt the same way.

That being said, it definitely couldn't hurt to go over this list of some items that you may believe you can mail all willy nilly, but you absolutely cannot.

Don't risk it for any type of biscuit.
