IOn Dec. 3, I placed a message on my
answering machine saying that I'm a
candidate for Congress in '98. That
same day, a letter of mine appeared in
this forum saying that I was working
on a plan to build a stadium for the
Steelers and a snowboard and cross-
country skiing recreation area in Indi-
ana-Westmoreland counties. The plan
also calls for stormwater containment
man-made lakes with condos on lake-
fronts.
That same day, I was taken out of my
apartment and. to Conemaugh Hospital
against my will. While there, I was told
that I had threatenedto kill U.S. Rep.
John Murtha and I was supposed to
admit Iwas mentally ill and take medi-
cine. I refused. On Dec. 8, a warrant
was issued for my arrest.
p Ma .. Since Dec. 3-, I've A " been lockedllp,
mentally abused
_*=§_ and had my human 1 1»-.. rights violated. I've
been compared to
I I V 1 Oklahoma City
bomber! Timothy- 5.52",-;-"5? Mcvéigh, W110 iS
Fentonnothing but a mass
murderer.
I'm running for
Congress because I don't see anybody
out there who has any plans or cares
for all the people. The top 10 percent
have their political puppets, but I'm for
the remaining 90 percent - the common
folks.
Let my voice be heard, not hearsay. I
only love, not hate. Build up, not tear
down. Promote life, not death. Care for
all, not some. I'm a political prisoner
right here in the USA.

Stonycreek Township police with makingvterror
istic threats andharassment.
He was returned to the Cambria County Jail

company. l

. , IMurtha menace to stand trial
He said the engine was damaged shortly alter-
ward.
He said Fenton made a claim to Erie for the
damage and a rebuilt engine was installed in the
vehicle. He said Fenton continued to have prob-
lems: the rebuilt engine developed problems and
the transmission failed because the engine was
not installed correctly. He said the insurance com-
pany continued to pay for repairs
He said Fenton called him at his Stonycreek
Township home on Dec. 3 and said the engine was
leaking oil again and that he was upset about how
his claim wasbeing handled.
Leventry said Fenton told him the employees
at the garage where the vehicle was being re
paired worked for Martha and, if Fenton went to
the garage, hemightkillthem.
Leventty said Fenton told him that Murtha
was behind his problems and it was a conspiracy
to ruinhim.
According to Leventiy, Fenton said he would
shoot Murtha, his aide, John Husya, all the em-

xi ,ployees of Erie Insurance and employees of The
Tribune-Democrat, the latter because the paper
took three months to publish his letter to the
Readers Forum. _
Leventry said Fenton also told him that
Murtha had stolen Fentons economic devel-
opmentplansforthe area.
Defense attorney Rich Corcoran said the
charges should he dismissed. He said Leventry
was not terrorized by Fentonls call and didnt
immediately hang up and call police. He said he
listened to Fenton for6to8minutes.
He said Fenton was upset over his claim and
that one call is not enough to place extreme fear
into somebody.Fenton said after the hearing - just before
his attorney asked him not to speak to the news
media-thathelikes The Tribune- Democrat andthathewouldnthannanyone. t
Murtha said atapress conferencewhenhe re-
turnedto Johnstownfromatrip to Bosnia, thathe
takes all threats seriously because of a previous
incident.

Submitting Ol'l'ice:
Murtha taking threats '
on himself seriously
THE TRIBUNE-DEMOCRAT
U.S. Rep. John Murtha, D-
J ohnstown, said Tuesday that
he takes a recent threat by a Sto-
nycreek Township man serious-'
ly.
Federal authorities are inves-
tigating threats against the con-
gressman by Donald Lee Fenton.
Fenton was charged Dec. 11~with
threatening to kill his insurance
agent.At a press conference at the
J ohnstown-Cambria County
Airport, Murtha told reporters
that, at one time, he did not give
threats much attention.
Then several, years ago, aman
had threatened Murthas life, the
congressman disclosed Tuesday.
It wasn't until the man killed
his wife and then himselfthat
MLu'tha begin to pay more
attention to the threats.

Fenton said Oklahoma City bomber ,
Timothy McVeigh was his hero and '
that Murtha was the source of all his
problems.
Leventry was handling an insur-
ance claim for damage done to Fen-
tons truck by Carmen Wholesale
Tires. Fenton grew frustrated that ,
repeated repairs-had to be made
after the garage failed to retill the,
truck's engine with new oil alterl
removing theold oil.
He accused Leventry of being in a
conspiracy with Murtha because of
all the truck's problems, the com-
plaintsays. .During the Dec. 3 talk, Fenton told
Leventry he purchased agun and a
lot of bullets and would be using
them, the complaint says.
Leventry told federal officials
Fenton seemed focused on carrying
out an act of violence. When Leveri-
try asked Fentonif the threats were
his way ofreaching out for help, Fen-
ton replied, Tell it to CNN?"
In a later interview with an FBI
agent, Fenton claimed Murtha, a
Johnstown Democrat, and Murtha's
aide, John Hugya, placed him under
StllV8iii&llCB, stole his ideas about
the city's revitalization and carried
out a series of dirty tricks against
him, according to the complaint.i Aftertheinterview,Fentonagreed
to voluntarily enter a hospital for
evaluation. On the way there, he told
I a police oicer: Murtha won again.its all about that article in thepaper, according to the complaint. i
he complaint didn't specify. . TEwhich newspaper story Fenton was
ireierringto. ,V Fenton, interviewed again Dec. 11** by an FBI agent, said he didn't own a
gun or ammunition and doesn't
believe in violence.
Fenton will appear in U.S. Districtv
Court in Jolmstown Friday at 2 p.m.t
for a preliminary examination, a
-hearing to assess whether the feder-
al government has met its burden oft
probable cause. For the charge to
stick, a federal grand jury must
indicthimwithin 30 days. »

Johnstown man held on charge»
that he threatened Rep.l92/Iurtha L
By BILL BLAIR
THE TRIBUNE-DEMOCRAT
A federal magistrate on Monday
ordered a Johnstown man to be held
on a charge he threatened the life of
U.S. Rep. J otm Murtha.
Donald Lee Fenton, 41, of the 2400
block of Bedford St., is accused of
threatening to murder Murtha while
talking on the telephone Dec. 3 with
a claims agent for an insurance com-
pany.
U.S. Magistrate Keith Pesto issued
the ruling following a preliminary
examination - similar to a prelimi-
nary hearing involving state charges
before a district justice - in U.S. Dis-
trict Court in Johnstown to assess
whether the govermnent had met its
burden of probable cause.
Pesto ruled after hearing testimo-
ny from two witnesses for the gov-
ernment.
The witnesses included Stony-
creek Township police Oicer Kevin
Price and FBI Special Agent Paul
Wilson.
Price arrested Fenton initially on
charges of making terroristic
threats and harassing Richland
Township insurance agent Randy
Leventry. '
Fenton is awaiting trial in Cam-
bria County Court on those charges.
During the phone conversation,
the federal complaint accuses Fen-
ton of threatening to blow Con-
gressman Murthas ghead o and
kill Leventry and- everyone in Lev-
entrys Erie IIlSL113.I1C8 oice.Leventry was handling an insur-damage done to 'ance claim for g at .1.ftFentons truck
byalocal repair ~ Z ""garage whose 64* , Q;workers failed >3
to . refill the W"
tr11<=l<$ ensme '
oil, resulting inthe engine being . * *
mined»
Both Priceand Wilson testi- Fenton
ed that their subsequent investiga-
tions revealed that Fenton was
angry with Murtha, a Johnstown
Democrat, because Fenton felt the
damage done to his vehicle and other
problems in his life were all part ofa
conspiracy against him by Murtha
and Murthas aide, John Hugya.
Price and Wilson .said they
learned that Fenton believed Murtha
was out to get him because Murtha
was aware that Fenton knew too
much about Murtha and Hugya.
Price and Wilson also testifiedthat Fenton was angry with the con-
gressman because Fenton claimed
that Murtha had stolen Fentons eco-
nomic recovery plans for Cambria
County, which included plans to
revitalise the Johnstown-Cambria
airport, the former Glosser Building
in downtown Johnstown and
installing a mass-transit system
around the city.
Pesto described the case as one .of
the most unusual he has been
involved in.
This is bazaar, hesaid.
Fenton was returned to the county
jail, where he is being held in lieu of
bond on the state charges.
Pesto told the lawyers involved to
schedule a detention hearing on the
federalcharges.--st

By LINDA HUDKINSTHETRIBUNE-DEMOCRAT
DonaldLeeFenton,themancharged
with threatening to kill U.S. Rep. John
Murtha in December, was released
from the Cambria County Jail follow-
ing a plea Wednesday to a federal
judge.
I am taking a risk if l let this guy
out and something does go wrong, said U.S. Magistrate Keith Pesto, refer-
ring to Murtha as a national trea-
sure."
Butlamgoingto takethatrisk,"he
said after Fentons mother, brother,
landlady of 10 years, and several oth-
ers testified that Fenton sometimes
loses his temper but gets over it quick-
ly.
Following the threats against-. M
Murtha, his aide John Hugya and sev-
eral others, Fenton spent three days in
Memorial Medical Center, then was
released to the county lockup, where
he remained for more than two
months. His trial in U.S. District Court
could come up as early as May, said
U.S. Attorney John Valcovci.
Fenton, 41, of the 2400 block of Bed-
fordStreet,was-re1easedon$25.oOorec-ognizance bond and ordered to look for
a job, stay away from people who may
be witnesses at his trial, and keep all
medical appointments.
Valcovci presented testimony that
painted a less-benign image of Fenton,
who sat silently in a red and black
checkered shirt.
Special Agent Paul H. Wilson of the
Federal Bureau-of Investigation said acounty jail inmate had told him last
month that Fenton promised to get a
machine gun andklllMurtha even if
he had to drive to Somerset.
The inmate also claimed Fenton said
that when he left his home, he would
be followed by different cars and that
when he returned home, he wotdd dis-

But Fentons lawyer, Marketa
Sims, questioned the inmate's truth-
fulness, noting that he expected to
receive assistance with his case for
helping prosecutors keep Fenton
behind bars. She also noted that the
inmate had a criminal record that
included perjury and criminal solic-
itation to commit perjury and that
he had at times worked as a paid
