I'm not sosure about those national values.The Florida man accused of sending pipe bombs to prominent critics of Donald Trump was indicted on more than two dozen new charges Friday, including ten which carry a possible life sentence if convicted.
The 30-count indictment against Cesar Sayoc was filed in Manhattan federal court, where Sayoc made an appearance earlier this week. Sayoc, 56, was initially arrested on 26 October on five charges carrying a potential sentence of nearly 50 years.

The new 26 page indictment includes five counts of use of a weapon of mass destruction, and five of “using and carrying a destructive device in furtherance of a crime of violence”, all of which carry a possible life sentence.

Prosecutors say evidence against Sayoc includes DNA linking him to 10 of the [16] explosive devices and fingerprints on two of them. It was not immediately announced when Sayoc will be arraigned. At that time, he will enter a plea.

“Sayoc’s alleged conduct put numerous lives at risk. It was also an assault on a nation that values the rule of law, a free press, and tolerance of differences without rancor or resort to violence,” said US Attorney Geoffrey Berman in a statement, who also referred to the mailing spree as a “reign of terror”.
