'I'm Going to Kill My Only Son'

A man incarcerated in a Georgia state prison allegedly threatened to kill his juvenile son and to put two other people in an underground container until they starve.

Daniel Eric Cobble, who is in the Baldwin State Prison until July 2021 for aggravated stalking, allegedly spelled out his plans in a letter mailed to a home on Harmony Road in Powder Springs.

The letter arrived at the home on or around April 18, according to a Cobb County criminal warrant.

In one part of the letter, Cobble allegedly wrote, "I'm going to kill my only son."

In another part of the letter, he wrote that a woman at the residence "will be kidnapped and her eyes blow torched and her eardrums burst, and will be put in an underground container until she starves to death."

Cobble made a similar threat against a man who also lives at the home.

Cobble faces charges that include three counts of terroristic threats. According to online Georgia Department of Corrections records, he has convictions in Cobb and Wilcox counties on charges of obstruction of a law enforcement officer, terroristic threats and criminal interference with government property.
