A man was charged on Monday in court with one felony count of stalking for intimidating the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s liberal chief justice over the past two months.

Ryan Thornton, a 37-year-old Racine resident, was accused of sending nine emails to Chief Justice Jill Karofsky between August and October. One of the emails, per the criminal complaint, stated, “Please EJECT YOURSELF FROM OFFICE.” Karofsky became chief justice of Wisconsin’s highest court in July.
