Judge Dismisses Charges Against Michigan Man Accused of Threatening Biden, Harris

The case was dropped due to lack of 'true threat' as determined by U.S. Magistrate Judge Patricia Morris, following a preliminary hearing.

Russell Warren, 49, was accused of threatening to kill President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris through messages on social media platform X.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Patricia Morris ruled that Warren's messages did not constitute a 'true threat' as they called for law enforcement and the courts to take action.
Warren was arrested on January 29 after being identified by his IP address but was released after the case was dismissed.
The dismissed charges could have led to a prison sentence of up to five years if Warren had been convicted.
Warren's threats also targeted other political figures, celebrities, and significant locations, including Disney theme parks and Mount Rushmore.
