Glen DeCicco was arrested on Friday and charged with making written threats to kill.
A Florida man has been arrested for allegedly making threats against President Donald Trump’s life on social media. Jupiter Police Department said in a press release that officers arrested Glen DeCicco on Friday and charged him with making written threats to kill.
An investigation into the matter began when police were alerted to concerning Facebook posts allegedly written by DeCicco. Detectives reviewed his social media and confirmed that he had made a threat against Trump.
Jupiter Police worked in coordination with the US Secret Service throughout the investigation, and DeCicco was taken into custody without incident.
Posts allegedly written by DeCicco on Friday included one that said, "Winning strategy: buy QQQ, sell SQQQ today; shoot Trump tomorrow," per the New York Post. "a**-a**-inate!" another one read. The posts appear to have been taken down as of Monday evening.
Around two months after the Butler, Pennsylvania attempted assassination on Donald Trump, which saw the then-presidential candidate shot in the ear and a crowd member killed, a man was arrested and charged with attempting to assassinate Trump as he was playing golf at his Florida golf club. Ryan Routh was initially set to face trial in February, but the trial was pushed back to September so that Routh's attorneys could review the large amount of evidence in the case and weigh whether to pursue an insanity defense.
A West Palm Beach woman in January was charged with making violent threats against the president on Facebook.
Per the Washington Times, the day after DeCicco was arrested, Trump visited his National Golf Club in Jupiter for the Senior Club Championships, winning his second-round matchup.
"Thank you Jupiter (FL) PD for your swift response & partnership. Threats against @POTUS or any Secret Service protectee are taken very seriously. Our success often starts with tips from the public so please continue to report suspicious activity to police," wrote Secret Service Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi.
