Federal authorities say a Michigan man took increasingly extreme actions - and warned that they could get worse - motivated by his unhappiness about “immoral content” on phones, including pornography and cursing. “In addition, both boxes contained language indicating that this was the ‘last warning,’ and that next time, it would be during ‘business hours,’ “ an arrest affidavit said. “He described what he wrote on the boxes, including the reference to ‘Handcuff Johnny’ and the threat that next time, it would happen during business hours,” said the affidavit. “ ‘Handcuff Johnny’ referred to John Allen’s belief that he would end up in handcuffs as a result of his actions.” He said he acted alone and there was no CMT group, describing taking action “because he became dissatisfied with all of the immoral content.” Allen is in federal custody.
