Indianapolis woman Shayla Addison, 28, was sentenced to 27 months in federal prison plus three years of supervised release after pleading guilty to two counts of influencing a federal official by threat for sending threatening texts, emails, and social-media posts targeting U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace in January 2025, with prosecutors noting a history of similar threats. The case underscores federal penalties for threats against elected officials and the intent to retaliate against Mace for her official duties.
