A man who sent a series of antisemitic threats to Hawaii Governor Josh Green has pleaded guilty in federal court to one count of cyberstalking.
Eric Lee Boltz, 52, entered the plea on 4 November before Senior US District Judge J. Michael Seabright. The court remanded him in custody, and sentencing is scheduled for 4 March 2027.
According to the plea agreement described by the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Hawaii, Boltz left threatening voicemails with the governor’s office in December 2025. He disguised his voice and threatened to kill Green and members of his family, as well as sexually assault the governor’s daughter. Boltz admitted that the campaign was motivated by Green’s public office and religion.
The guilty plea resolves the charge but does not determine the sentence. Boltz faces a statutory maximum of five years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000 and a term of supervised release. The final sentence will be imposed by the court after considering the federal sentencing framework and the circumstances of the case.
The FBI investigated the matter. Assistant US Attorney Barbara Eucker is prosecuting it.
