Police respond to Kathy Miller's home over death threats after racism remarks [View all]

BOARDMAN -- Kathy Miller, who resigned as Donald Trump’s Mahoning County chairwoman and a Republican member of the Electoral College after making “inappropriate” remarks about black Americans and racism, called police to report a threat made against her.

Miller, a former township trustee, called police to her Boardman residence on Creston Drive around 9:20 p.m. Saturday for a specific text message that read: “I know where you live and you will pay for your comments you {expletive},” according to a report.

She told police she has been receiving unwanted texts and calls from a variety of numbers, making threats against her life and property. The threats, she believes, are related to her controversial statement to The Guardian about racism that was published last Thursday.

In a text message Wednesday to The Vindicator, Miller said she received harassing phone calls, text messages, emails and letters.
