The Post's story on the Death Threat against Abp. Burke's

Officials filed a misdemeanor harassment charge Wednesday against a man they said left a phone message threatening to shoot St. Louis Archbishop Raymond Burke, apparently over the controversy about St. Stanislaus Koska Church.
...
A man police identified as [James] Eggers phoned the archdiocese Tuesday and left a message lasting several minutes, in which he curses Burke and says that no matter how much police protection Burke has, that he will get a gun and kill him.

The suspect is not a member of St. Stanislaus and his name is not familiar, said church spokesman Roger Krasnicki. "We deplore, denounce and reject any type of violence," Krasnicki said. "That's terrible."
