"Mr. Bukoski terrorized the citizens of Anne Arundel County by robbing a local establishment and setting multiple fires destroying private property," said Anne Arundel County State's Attorney Anne Colt Leitess in a statement outlining Bukoski's sentencing. "His sentence is just and should provide a sense of relief to the community as he will be serving a lengthy prison sentence and will no longer be a danger to society."
Bukoski also pleaded guilty in September to a federal charge of transmitting threats by interstate commerce.
