I believe the "common rules" in this case are not "just ignore it" but rather: Take legal advice. Contact the police.

They would probably say "don't talk to the press about it, don't give the attacker more fuel".

In the realm of internet trolls, the classic rule is "don't feed the troll". but an internet troll doesn't make death threats...

The police generally are unable or unwilling to act on internet harassment.
