AO 72A (Rev. 8/82) the conversation, Fenton told Leventry “that he was going to kill all Erie [Insurance] employees.” Id. at 67. He continued, I may not kill you, but if I were you, I would keep my doors locked because once this gets started, I don’t know what’s going to happen.” Id. Fenton then elaborated further about the nature of the “conspiracy” he believed was operating against him: He did say that Murtha stole his ideas for an economic recovery plan that he had drawn up. It had to do with an overhead rail transportation system and other ideas that he had.... He said that since Mr. Murtha stole Mr. Fenton’s ideas, that now Mr. Murtha would have to see that Fenton’s either killed or commit [sic] suicide. Id. at 67. Fenton went on: He said he had spoken to his pastor, and he had--he knows that God would forgive him for what he’s going to do; that if the Government declares war on him, he was going to have to take a body count... . He said he was desperate, that he hadn’t eaten for three days; that Congressman Murtha’s trying to destroy his business and has succeeded in doing so.... Mr. Fenton told me that he had been to Vietnam, he said, in 1975. He said that he had seen people die there, that he’s not afraid to die. He said that he would kill until he’s killed. He said that when he dies, there would be a tape, that he had produced a videotape. It would be disseminated to the press, it would be detrimental to Mr. Murtha. It would lay out the entire conspiracy. ... Towards the end of the conversation I told Mr. Fenton that I hoped that this was his way of reaching out for help. He told me to tell that to CNN. I told him that I would not--I would not be able to keep this silent, that I would have to make a few calls. He understood that. Id. at 68, 70. Fenton did not tell Leventry to convey the message to Murtha, nor was there evidence to suggest that Fenton even implied that Leventry should do so. For his part, Leventry did not tell Fenton that he was going to relay the contents of the conversation to Congressman Murtha, nor did he contact the Congressman’s office. See dkt. no. 127, at 42 (Leventry, cross). In response
