Now she wishes she had never said a word.

Raworth was greeted with broad support when she tweeted allegations about Hehr, still a Calgary MP, Wednesday night.

That has since turned to death threats on social media and email, threatening voice mails left on her work line, and 3 a.m. calls to people close to her, saying they’re going to track her down.

“Shut the f–k up,” it said, “or we’re going to come after you.”

A public servant with the Alberta government, Raworth is now under the watch of legislature security.

Raworth spoke with Postmedia late Saturday afternoon. By then, she was “completely cried out.”
