Overview
- Jurors declined to indict Indiana resident Nathalie Rose Jones on charges tied to alleged threats made on social media and during a Secret Service interview.
- Chief Judge James E. Boasberg previously ordered her released to home detention with GPS monitoring and required psychiatric treatment.
- Prosecutors pointed to an Aug. 6 Facebook post about “disemboweling” the president and a later statement referencing a “bladed object” as key evidence.
- Defense filings cited a history of schizophrenia, supportive letters from friends, a lack of weapons, and her assertion she traveled to Washington to protest peacefully.
- U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro condemned the grand jury’s decision as political, and the outcome aligns with other recent D.C. no-bills that have led some cases to be downgraded to misdemeanors.
