Woman accused of threatened to kill Trump released by Obama-appointed federal judge
Woman Accused of Threatening President Trump Released by Federal Judge
A woman who was arrested last month for allegedly making death threats against President Donald Trump has been released by a federal judge following a contentious legal battle. Chief Judge James Boasberg ordered the release of Nathalie Rose Jones, 50, under electronic monitoring and instructed her to undergo a psychiatric evaluation in New York City.
Background of the Case
Jones was arrested after participating in a protest in Washington, D.C., where she allegedly made threats against President Trump on social media. Her posts included references to harming the president and staging a violent act at the White House. Following her arrest, she was held without bond and ordered to undergo a competency evaluation.
Legal Battle and Release
Despite initial concerns over the seriousness of Jones’s threats, Judge Boasberg overturned the detention order and allowed her release under strict conditions. This decision came after a series of legal maneuvers and appeals by Jones’s defense team, who argued that she posed no immediate threat and had no intention of carrying out the alleged threats.
