Man sentenced to prison for sending fake anthrax letter to Nevada school

February 20, 2019 By Dar Danielson

A central Iowa man will server time in prison for mailing a threatening letter to a local teacher.

Sixty-seven-year-old Mondell Olson was sentenced 18 months in prison after he admitted to sending a letter to a Nevada school teacher which contained a white powdery substance inside and a note indicating the substance was anthrax. Tests determined the power was not toxic.

Olson had previously been convicted on harassment charges in Story County for leaving threatening voice mails to the Nevada High School and a student.
