A New Hampshire man on trial for threatening the lives of presidential candidates last year has been found dead while a jury was deciding his verdict, according to court filings.
The jury began weighing the case against Tyler Anderson, 30, of Dover on Tuesday after a trial that began Monday.
A message seeking comment from Anderson's lawyer was not immediately returned. A court filing said "the government has learned that the defendant is deceased."
Anderson had been indicted by a federal grand jury in December on three counts of sending a threat using interstate commerce.
The U.S. Attorney's office did not name the candidates. When Anderson was arrested, a spokesperson for Republican candidate Vivek Ramaswamy said that texts were directed at his campaign.
