- According to official statements, the scrutiny into these threats commenced in April and by June, the U.S. Secret Service was alerted about the looming threat by the FBI.
- As per the federal complaint acquired by media outlets, Robertson was charged on three distinct counts: making interstate threats, threats aimed at the president, and acts of threatening federal law enforcement officers to influence or impede their duties.
- The complaint further incorporated several alarming social media entries presumed to be Robertson’s.
- These posts threatened severe harm to both President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
- Moreover, Robertson seemingly threatened multiple officials connected to the legal actions against the former President, Donald Trump.
