Federal prosecutors have recently charged a Pennsylvania man with making online threats to kill President Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. The charges were unsealed on Tuesday, revealing disturbing details of the threats made by the accused, Gregory Mitzel.
According to court documents, Mitzel allegedly posted the threats shortly after the first assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump. In one of his Facebook posts on the same day as the attempt on Trump’s life, Mitzel reportedly wrote, 'Hey Hillary, you missed the next one’s coming for you and Joe.'
The following day, Mitzel allegedly posted another threat directed at President Biden, stating, 'Joe you are going down you and Hillary are going down. You will be in a crosshairs. Thank you.' In yet another post, he allegedly wrote, 'The next step in this process has to be somebody put a bullet in Joe Biden’s head.'
Prosecutors have also accused Mitzel of threatening to kill the assistant US Attorney who was handling the investigation into his threats against President Biden.
As a result of these alarming actions, Mitzel is now facing several charges, including threatening to kill the president and threatening a federal official.
