Texas man pleads guilty to making threats against a company over his debt

NORFOLK, Va. – A Texas man pled guilty yesterday to sending threatening interstate communications.

According to court documents, a Norfolk-based collection agency sent a message to Taylor Bullard, 35, of Houston, regarding a debt he owed.  Bullard sent a signed response threatening to show up at one of the company’s locations with a machete and gasoline to “do things that are unforgivable” and “make your executive team question their life choices.”

Bullard is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 2 and faces up to five years in prison. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

The FBI’s Norfolk Field Office investigated this case.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Clayton D. LaForge is prosecuting the case.

Related court documents and information are located on the website of the  District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia or on  PACER by searching for Case No. 2:25-CR-5.
