An Indiana woman who joined a D.C. protest in the US, over the weekend criticizing the surge in federal law enforcement in the nation’s capital has been arrested and charged with making online de.ath thre.ats against President Donald Trump
This is according to documents filed on Monday in a federal court.
U.S. officials said the Secret Service found social media accounts linked to Nathalie Rose Jones, 49, of Lafayette, Indiana, calling for Trump’s arrest and removal from office — and labeling him a terror!st and “nazi” — in erratic posts beginning in early August.
“She wanted to ‘avenge’ all the lives lost during the COVID-19 pandemic, which she attributed to the President’s administration and its position on vaccinations,” a Secret Service agent said in a charging document filed in U.S. District Court.
U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s office said Jones’s social media commentary included de..ath threats, with a Facebook account linked to Jones posting on Aug. 6: “Here’s where we are: I literally told FBI in five states today that I am willing to sacrificially k!ll this POTUS by disemboweling him and cutting out his trachea with Liz Cheney and all The Affirmation present and you did not come to my home this way at all.”
The online threats began before Trump declared a crime emergency in D.C. on Aug. 11, law enforcement officials indicated in court filings. Jones agreed to be interviewed by the Secret Service on Friday, telling them that she had access to a “bladed object” and that “if she had the opportunity, she would take the President’s life and would k!ll him at ‘the compound’ if she had to,” according to the Secret Service agent’s affidavit.
Reports also indicate that Jones has struggled with mental illness, which she acknowledged in her social media posts. As of now, there is no public record of her legal representation.
