MOUNT CLEMENS (AP) — A man has pleaded no contest to making bomb and death threats against a Macomb County judge.
The Macomb Daily reports Keith Rebar, 55, pleaded Monday in connection with threats made last September.
The Washington Township man was accused of threatening to place bombs under Judge Katherine Viviano’s car if he didn’t get favorable rulings in a child custody case.
Rebar, a 13-year Marine veteran, could get into the Veterans Treatment Court and be sentenced next month to time served — roughly 11 months.
Defense attorney Leon Weiss says Rebar didn’t intend to follow through but his client “understands” he was wrong.
A no contest plea isn’t an admission of guilt but treated that way for sentencing purposes.
Viviano is the sister of Michigan Supreme Court Justice David Viviano.
