Authorities in Arizona apprehended a man for creating alarming Facebook videos in which he declared that he intended to kill Donald Trump.
In an eerie turn of events, as Trump entered an arena in Glendale, Arizona, in August, Manuel Tamayo-Torres filmed himself making his way to the venue armed with an AR 15-style rifle. Trump had previously discussed an incident where Thomas Crooks fired at him using an AR 15-style rifle during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, just a month prior. “[Y]ou’re going to die,” Tamayo-Torres reportedly stated in a video he shared on Thursday. “[Y]our son’s going to die. Your entire family is going to die… I’m going to create a hole in your face.”
According to the charging documents, Tamayo-Torres made a series of strange and baseless allegations about Trump, asserting that the 78-year-old was involved in kidnapping and sex-trafficking his own children. He has been charged with one count of making threats against a president or future president.
