FBI agents shot and killed a Utah man during a raid on Wednesday morning after he allegedly threatened President
Joe Biden and federal prosecutors with assassination.
The raid happened hours before Biden was expected to land in the state.
According to the FBI, special agents attempted to serve
Craig Deleeuw Robertson a warrant in Provo when the shooting happened at 6:15 a.m.
The Associated Press
noted that the
complaint alleges that Robertson mentioned “presidential assassination” and made threats against Manhattan District Attorney
Alvin Bragg, Attorney General
Merrick Garland, and New York AG
Letitia James.
Bragg is currently prosecuting former President
Donald Trump for
allegedly falsifying business records. Trump is also being prosecuted by Garland’s Department of Justice in two cases.
“The time is right for a presidential assassination or two,” Robertson allegedly wrote on Facebook in September 2022. “First Joe then Kamala!!!”
Robertson was
facing three criminal counts: interstate threats, threats against the president, and influencing, impeding, and retaliating against federal law enforcement officers by threat.
In another Facebook post, Robertson reportedly
wrote, “In my dream I see Joe Biden’s body in a dark corner of a DC parking garage with his head severed and lying in a huge puddle of blood. Hoorah!!!”
