ISP: Man made threats against Indiana Supreme Court justices

MOROCCO, Ind. (WISH) — A Morocco man is facing charges after being accused of directing threatening emails, calls and voicemails to the Indiana Supreme Court.

David Goetz II, 26, faces two felony counts of intimidation of a judicial officer.

Indiana State Police say the investigation began in February 2022 when Indiana State Capitol Police contacted ISP’s Lowell district.

Investigators say Goetz sent threatening emails and made threatening calls. When calls would go unanswered, he would leave threats on voicemail, according to investigators.

“I am serious I will kill you people now for violating my rights of a fair trial all of my charges of the state of Indiana,” Goetz is accused of writing in an email on Feb. 25.

Police say they first spoke to Goetz about the messages in February.

“I didn’t threaten the Supreme Court, I just threatened the Judge,” Goetz told investigators, according to court documents.

Police were alerted again on May 2.

ISP says detectives reviewed voicemails and emails where Goetz made statements including, “I’ll come down and I’ll f****** kill you mother f******,” “either I get my money or I hunt you all the f*** down stab you on the f****** backs and I f****** kill you so do you all understand,” and “it was obstruction of justice an act of war which gave me the right to kill every single f****** cop and judge in this freaking country.”

Goetz was arrested on Wednesday. Court documents also list him as a registered sex offender.

Online court records list a hearing for Goetz on Friday.
