PALM BEACH, FLORIDA - MARCH 21: A Secret Service agent guards the Mar-a-Lago home of former President Donald Trump on March 21, 2023 in Palm Beach, Florida. Trump said on a social media post that he expects to be arrested in connection with an investigation into a hush-money scheme involving adult film actress Stormy Daniels and called on his supporters to protest any such move. However, it is unclear if he will be arrested or not. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images)

Overview

  • Caroline Shaw approached Mar-a-Lago’s south gate on July 7 claiming she had an urgent message for President Trump and admitted to having firearms in her vehicle.
  • Palm Beach Police and U.S. Secret Service agents arrested Shaw, seized a handgun from her van and secured her vehicle for further investigation.
  • She faces misdemeanor counts for driving with a suspended license and operating a vehicle with expired registration that lapsed in December 2021.
  • A judge set her bond at $2,000, ordered no contact with Trump or any of his properties and prompted a petition to remove her access to firearms for one year under Florida’s risk protection order process.
  • Shaw is free on bond under no-contact and weapons restrictions as local and federal agencies coordinate the probe ahead of her July 14 hearing.
