Trump-Pardoned Jan. 6er Accused Of Threatening To Kill Federal Judges
A Georgia man who was pardoned by President Donald Trump after threatening to fatally shoot then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi during the 2021 insurrection has reportedly been arrested again, this time for allegedly threatening to kill federal judges.
Cleveland Meredith, who was sentenced in 2021 to 28 months in prison for his prior threats, was arrested Monday, according to Politico, after allegedly posting a threat to Facebook in April.
"ALL J6 Federal JUDGES will be EXECUTED!" the post cited in a federal affidavit reads.
Meredith, who was described in the affidavit as having a "history of violent online rhetoric" by an FBI agent investigating his online activity, has been out of prison since 2022, according to The New Yorker.
When he was first arrested in Washington in 2021, prosecutors said he was found with "a 9 mm semi-automatic firearm, an assault-style rifle with a telescopic sight, approximately 2,500 rounds of ammunition, and multiple large-capacity ammunition feeding devices."
