    A truck driver was charged in newly unsealed court documents
    with threatening multiple times to assassinate President Donald
    Trump over the course of more than a month.

    Little information about the man, identified as James Anthony
    Jackson, was made available in a criminal complaint unsealed
    Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Detroit.

    The complaint said only that Jackson is a truck driver and that
    he was born in 1984.

    The documents don't directly say that Jackson is even in
    custody, but the motion to unseal the case said he was no longer
    considered a flight risk. No hometown, attorney or court dates
    were recorded.

    According to an affidavit filed by the Secret Service, Jackson
    began making rambling, obscene phone calls to Secret Service
    field offices in Detroit and Chicago on Sept. 17. More calls
    were made on Oct. 12, 13 and 18, the affidavit said.

    In one of the calls, Jackson raged against Trump and said he was
    going to blow the "white brains out of ... his ... head,"
    according to the Secret Service.

    NBC News has redacted the full quotations because of their
    extreme language.

    The Secret Service said Jackson managed to "spoof" the caller ID
    information transmitted by his phone, making it difficult to
    track him down. Once agents determined the phone's real number,
    the Secret Service traced the device to a company called James
    Jackson Profit Group LLC in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

    Contact information wasn't listed for the company, which isn't
    registered in state business records.

    The Secret Service said Jackson used the same phone to harass an
    unidentified woman who said he called himself "Jamie." According
    to the Secret Service, "Jamie" threatened to "cut off her head
    and parade it in front of the White House for Trump."

    Relatives of Jackson told investigators that they had lost
    contact with him for about a year until he started making
    harassing, threatening calls to them, as well.

    If he's convicted, Jackson could face five years in federal
    prison.
