A Winchester man made good on his promise to ‘lock and load’.
Frank Lucio Carillo, 68, spent years posting death threats against former President Barack Obama and Vice President Kamala Harris on social media.
From July 2024, authorities tracked the ‘joemadarats1’ handle on GETTR to a Winchester home.
When FBI agents searched the house, they found a 9mm pistol, an AR-15, and thousands of rounds of ammo.
Carillo pleaded guilty in April 2025 to sending threatening communications.
He’s now headed to prison for 30 months.
