MILTON, Ga. — Milton Mayor Peyton Jamison is continuing to receive threats, and this time, they involve Gov. Brian Kemp.
According to the Dec. 17 incident report, police spoke with the suspect who had allegedly made threats against “several individuals,” but the suspect was not identified. The report states that the investigation continues, but no other details were provided.
Jamison told Appen Media he had again received threats toward him and his family.
The first incident was in early September, when Jamison told detectives he received a call from a number he didn’t recognize before the Milton City Council that evening. The caller threatened to kill the mayor and “everyone there,” according to the Sept. 6 incident report.
Minutes after the phone call, Jamison received three more text messages. One demanded that the mayor “leave now” and to not “show up in any part of Milton exposed.” Another read “Georgia is going down. Especially here.”
When asked about Kemp’s involvement in the Dec. 17 incident, Jamison said he did not know the details of what had transpired. Garrison Douglas, Kemp’s press secretary, and the Milton Police Department could not be reached for comment.
