FBI completes investigation into death threats leveled against Anchorage mayor embroiled in sex scandal
The FBI concluded its investigation into death threats levelled against the former Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz by a news anchor he admitted to having a “messaging relationship” with after the anchor claimed he posted inappropriate photos of himself to an underage website. The FBI and Anchorage police found “no immediate evidence to support a violation of federal law; however, the FBI Anchorage Field Office continues to monitor the situation.” Berkowitz, the top elected Democrat in Alaska, resigned Tuesday due to the affair, just days after vehemently denying allegations by YourAlaskaLink anchor Maria Athens that he had posted nude photos of himself on an underage website.
