Reece Kyle Casey, 26, admitted in Caboolture Magistrates Court today to using a fake Facebook account to threaten to “slit their throats”, referring to Mr Newman and his wife Lisa.
The message also warned Mr Newman to protect his loved ones, which was taken as a threat against the Premier's two daughters. Casey received a 18-month probation order and an 18-month good-behaviour bond.
An order was also made for the laptop on which the post was written to be returned to its rightful owner.
Security was strengthened around the Premier after the threat was posted to his Facebook page in January.
Premier Campbell Newman and wife Lisa were both threatened in the Facebook post.
