A Belfast man who told a court security guard he would cut a judge's throat has been jailed for eight months
An east Belfast man who threatened to slit a judge's throat has been jailed for eight months.
The guard stopped the man, later identified as McCormick, from accessing the building after he set off metal detectors at the entrance.When told she was not in the building, he said: "I'm going to cut her f***ing throat. There's going to be a bloodbath''. When interviewed, McCormick said he was hungover that morning and "didn't know what was going on in his head".
The prosecution said that among the aggravating factors was that the threat was made to a public servant and he attended the courthouse on two occasions and repeated the threat.
