Mar 31, 2023 | 12:40 PM

A Wisconsin man charged in federal court with making a threat against Gov. Tony Evers and others has pleaded guilty to making a threat against a county official under a deal with prosecutors. 52 year old Michael Yaker, of Windsor, Wisconsin, agreed to the guilty plea deal on Wednesday. He left a threatening voicemail message in May for then-Dane County Highway Commissioner Gerald Mandli. In November, Yaker was charged in a complaint in U.S. District Court with threatening Evers by email and Facebook messages in October while Yaker was in Kansas.
