Kyle Sandilands hit by chilling new death threat from an impostor posing as Jackie O Henderson

Kyle Sandilands has reportedly received a disturbing death threat from somebody posing as his longtime radio co-host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson.The message emerged after an earlier handwritten letter allegedly demonstrated detailed knowledge of the building where the controversial broadcaster and his team worked.Sandilands’ manager and close friend Bruno Bouchet told The Sunday Telegraph that police had been alerted to both incidents.’We got another threat emailed through, pretending to be Jackie the other day, so we’ve gone to the police about that,’ he said.There is no suggestion Henderson had any knowledge of or involvement in the threatening message.Bouchet said the first warning arrived in the mail earlier this year and immediately caused concern because its author appeared familiar with the interior of the team’s workplace.
