All of you will be exploded for causing my separation with my husband for this last year. Everything will be exploded around new year or after."
"A few months later, she emailed three employees at the U.S. consulate pretending to be T.H., saying i wil (sic) kill every (expletive) one of you who has been delaying issuing my wife visa, according to the U.S. attorney's office."

She was sentenced to five years and four months in prison and ordered to pay $5,372 in restitution.
