Overview

  • Terrell Bailey-Corsey was arrested on July 21 and charged under 18 U.S. Code § 875(c) for transmitting interstate threats to kill individuals he believed were tied to Jeffrey Epstein.
  • The FBI and Department of Justice had officially declared earlier in July that no Epstein client list exists before Bailey-Corsey’s July 15 post confronting X’s AI assistant Grok.
  • Prosecutors allege he threatened mass killings with weapons including a machete, knife and bow and arrow and later targeted three unnamed government officials “on sight.”
  • Investigators traced the violent posts on X and a linked Facebook account back to Bailey-Corsey, who acknowledged making the threats and expressed remorse during a July 17 interview.
  • His social media accounts have been suspended and he remains in custody awaiting an initial court appearance in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida.
