Muskogee resident pleads guilty to threatening federal official and another person

Jacob Wray Hudson, a 37-year-old resident of Muskogee, pleaded guilty on Mar. 23 to two counts of interstate communications with a threat to injure the person of another, according to the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma.

The case highlights ongoing efforts by federal authorities to address threats made against government officials and others through interstate communication channels.

Prosecutors said that between October 29 and November 20, 2025, Hudson knowingly transmitted threats targeting an official from the Federal Bureau of Investigation as well as another individual using interstate commerce. Each count carries a potential penalty of up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

The investigation was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation in cooperation with the Muskogee Police Department. The Honorable Gerald L. Jackson, Magistrate Judge in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, accepted Hudson’s plea and ordered a presentence investigation report.

A U.S. District Court Judge will determine Hudson's sentence after reviewing recommendations from sentencing guidelines and other statutory factors. Until sentencing is finalized, Hudson will remain in custody under supervision by the United States Marshals Service.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys T. Cameron McEwen and Erin Cornell represented the government in this matter.
