Everett man indicted for alleged threats against Trump [View all]
EVERETT — Following a series of social media posts allegedly threatening to kill President Donald Trump, a federal grand jury indicted an Everett man on Wednesday on two counts of threatening a federal official.
On Aug. 19, the United States Capitol Police notified the United States Secret Service that the X account saydieonline had posted at 4:42 a.m., “What the guy in the White House sees after I kill the US PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND WEAR HIS FACE AS A MASK,” alongside a photo of the suspect’s face, according to court documents.
Upon reviewing the account, investigators discovered additional posts with similar content, such as a post made eight days earlier that read, “real punks can agree with me on this one. Elon musk and trump are easy targets ??? ((suicide)” and one made around two hours before the Aug. 19 post stating, “WHEN I TWEET THAT ILL ASSASSINATE THE US PRESIDENT THEY DELETE IT,” court documents said.
Investigators located additional social media accounts associated with the same user, which included self-reported information, such as his name, his location and an Aug. 14 post stating he is 20 years old, court documents said. The suspect’s Washington State Department of Licensing photo reportedly matched the person depicted in the X post from Aug. 19.
