To Trump, Grant allegedly wrote that “the moment you walk out of office, I’m going to have you shot! Right in your [expletive] head.”
A man from Peoria, Illinois has been accused of threatening violence against former President Donald Trump, a federal judge, and an Illinois district attorney, Breaking911 reports.
Damien Grant, 33, has been charged with three counts of "influencing a federal official by threat," two counts of "mailing threatening communications," and one count of "threatening the President of the United States," as Trump was still President at the time.
"You have 2 days to drop all charges and investigations against me or [I'm] going to make sure you never see Christmas… I might have someone walk in the Court House and blow all you evil [expletive] to pieces," Grant allegedly wrote to the US Attorney for the Central District of Illinois in late November.
Grant allegedly made similar threats towards a federal judge for the same district.
To Trump, Grant allegedly wrote that "the moment you walk out of office, I'm going to have you shot! Right in your [expletive] head."
The charges against Grant have not yet been proven in court.
