Sean Patrick Cirillo, a resident of Georgia, was arrested for allegedly threatening to assassinate Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, leading to the closure of her district office.
Cirillo reportedly called Greene's office twice, making threats to murder her and her family, and claimed to possess a sniper rifle.
The threats led to swift action from multiple law enforcement agencies, including Rome City Police, the Floyd County Sheriff's Office, U.S. Capitol Police, the House Sergeant at Arms, and the FBI.
Cirillo was charged under the Interstate Communications statute, which stipulates that anyone communicating a threat to injure another person may face imprisonment or fines.
The incident occurred amidst Greene's recent political activities, including her introduction of a resolution to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib for comments critical of Israel, which successfully passed the House.
