Trump Pardons Boca Raton Woman Convicted of Threatening FBI Agents

The Justice Department’s pardon attorney disclosed the clemency on X, casting the case as a correction to what he called Biden-era weaponization.

Overview

  • Suzanne Ellen Kaye received a full and unconditional pardon issued Friday, Nov. 14, and the action was made public Saturday by DOJ pardon attorney Edward R. Martin Jr.
  • Kaye was convicted for posting videos on Jan. 31, 2021, in which she said she would shoot FBI agents before a planned interview about her trip to Washington on Jan. 6.
  • The FBI learned of the posts on Feb. 8, 2021, and arrested Kaye at her Boca Raton home on Feb. 17, 2021, following multiple public tips.
  • A jury found Kaye guilty in June 2022 of interstate transmission of a threat to injure, and she was sentenced on April 26, 2023, to 18 months in federal prison.
  • Federal records indicate she was no longer in custody as of June 7, 2024, and Martin praised the pardon as undoing what he described as the Biden DOJ’s targeting of social media posts.
