    No. 16-11800 (11th Cir. Feb. 15, 2017)   Cited 3 times

    It is not clear from Georgia law whether she is correct on that point. There are several cases that suggest she is not. Cobble v. State, 603 S.E.2d 86, 87-88 (Ga. Ct. App. 2004) (holding that threats made in the presence of a law enforcement officer were sufficient evidence to indicate an intent to communicate because the victim had a protective order against the defendant and the defendant had just violated that order); Nassau v. State, 715 S.E.2d 837, 840 (Ga. Ct. App. 2011) (concluding that there was sufficient evidence of an intent to communicate in part because the defendant told a power company night dispatcher to put his threats against the power company's technicians in his account records); Brown v. State, 680 S.E.2d 579 (Ga. Ct. App. 2009) (holding that a defendant's statements to his attorney that he was going to kill his wife and mother-in-law could support a conviction for terroristic threats because the defendant's frequent use of law books and greater-than-usual appreciation of the contours of attorney-client privilege would allow a jury to conclude that the defendant knew the attorney would have had an ethical duty to report the threat). But Cobble, Nassau, and Brown could be distinguished from this case.
