It’s not uncommon that people usually become salty when they’ve been punished, but one Florida man is taking things into an entirely new level!

According to the Associated Press, convicted drug trafficker Todd Watson allegedly stalked several judges and made offensive threats via phone and mail toward them.

This week, Watson was arrested in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on 15 misdemeanor charges related to these threats.

After being released from a six year stint in prison, Watson began both stalking and harassing 11 local judges. In letter to some judges, Watson wrote that he planned to be their “biggest nightmare.”

Watson accused the judges of illegally convicting people by fabricating evidence, doctoring transcripts and engaging in collusion.

"I'm sick and tired of the last eight years of my life being negatively impacted by lowlife scumbags such as yourself," Watson wrote in one letter. He later vowed to live to see all of the judges he felt had wronged society die in prison.

Some of Watson's threats were offensive in nature. He called one Jewish judge “Hitler” and an black judge “Uncle Tom.”

Watson also harassed certain judges in person.

In April, he tried to barge into a judge’s chambers, but his plans were thwarted when the judge pushed a panic button, deputies rushing in to whisk Watson away. The incident rattled many judges in Broward County.

"I have judges that are literally afraid to go out into the halls," Broward Sheriff's Detective Joseph Kessling said. "The judges, their wives, their children … they're live in fear pretty much on a daily basis."

Oddly, some of the judges Watson targeted weren't involved in his case. Others weren't even judges when he was first sentenced.

"I pretty much have never seen somebody so dangerous, reckless and relentless in my entire life," Joseph Kessling said. "He's made it perfectly clear that he's a nightmare, he's free, he's not going away and he is not going to stop."

Although Watson is currently in custody, being held under a $100,000 bond, officials are taking his threats seriously.

"Every judge in Broward County is a potential target," Prosecutor Eric Linder said.
