He could face local charges in those jurisdictions? Does double jeopardy prevent each county seeking their own sentence?

  Yes, they can't charge him again for the same physical act. His federal guilty plea appears to admit to 375 swatting calls. So I don't think the state or local courts can subsequently charge him for any of those calls - they would need to find evidence of some separate calls.

    IANAL, but some googling suggests you are wrong about that: https://www.shouselaw.com/ca/blog/federal-crimes/is-it-double-jeopardy-to-charge-someone-in-state-and-federal-court/ https://www.shouselaw.com/ca/blog/federal-crimes/is-it-doubl...

      You're right, I stand corrected.
