Abbott v. State
See Roberts, 915 F.2d at 891 (“While a relevant consideration is whether ‘an ordinary reasonable recipient who is familiar with the context of the letter would interpret it as a threat of injury,’ [United States v.] Maisonet, 484 F.2d [1356, 1358 (4th Cir.1973), cert. denied, 415 U.S. 933 , 94 S.Ct. 1447 , 39 L.Ed.2d 491 (1974) ], there is no requirement that the actual recipient testify.”) Watts, supra, 394 U.S. at 706 , 89 S.Ct. 1399 , is instructive with respect to the sufficiency of the evidence in a prosecution such as the one at bar.
