A federal judge in Florida this week ordered a 60-year-old woman to spend more than a year in prison for threatening to kill Donald Trump by detonating bombs at two of his properties, a sentence far harsher than the term of simple probation recommended by prosecutors.

U.S. District Court Judge Raag Singhal — a Trump appointee — on Wednesday sentenced Martha Jane Schoenfeld to 13 months in a federal correctional facility, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show.

Schoenfeld in September pleaded guilty to one count of making threats against a former president and/or their family. As part of the negotiated plea agreement, prosecutors agreed to drop a second charge of threatening a former president and to recommend to the court that Schoenfeld serve one year of probation as opposed to prison time.
