FBI agents then obtained GPS location data for Griffith’s phone, which showed his phone active in the La Grande area. Federal agents alerted La Grande police, who were familiar with Griffith, but they couldn’t locate him that day, according to court records. Two days later, La Grande police arrested Griffith on unrelated charges and police seized his cell phone. She told Griffith that the outcome doesn’t suggest his crime was not a serious one. “Even if you may not be intending to carry out the threats, certainly you create fear in others,” the judge said.
