A mentally ill Arizona man with previous felony charges has been arrested after threatening to kill President-elect Donald Trump.

According to court documents, Manuel Tamayo-Torres has been accused of threatening to kill Trump, as shown in a number of concerning videos posted online.

His mugshot and age has not yet been released to the press by the authorities. Additionally, some sources say that he was arrested in Southern California, while other sources allege that he was arrested in Arizona, where he resides.

Police stated that Tamayo-Torres posted videos on a “near-daily basis” accusing Trump and members of the president-elect’s family of kidnapping and sex-trafficking his children. It is unclear if the arrested man even has children.

A recently posted video was shared on November 21st, where he declared that Trump’s “whole family is going to die,” according to the charging documents.

Reports stated that the court documents did not directly identify Trump, only referring to him as “Individual 1.” However, court documents identify “Individual 1” as a public figure, “former” president, and the current president-elect.

Court documents note that last Thursday, Tamayo-Torres said in a video posted on Facebook, “[Individual 1] you’re gonna die, [Individual 1], your son’s gonna die. Your whole family is going to die, [Individual 1]. This is reality now for you. This is the only reality you have in your future, [Individual 1], dying.”

Tamayo-Torres also threatened to shoot Trump in another video and held up “what appears to be a white AR 15-style rifle with a 30-round magazine inserted into it.”

“You’re Caucasian nothing,” he continued in the video. “You’ll earn nothing. Aryan money, that’s all you have. You’re a low-life scum. I’ll spit in your f—–g face motherf—er, and if they give me a chance, I’m going to f—–g bury you myself.”

Previously, on August 23rd, Tamayo-Torres posted yet another video, but this time, from the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. The same location where Trump was holding an afternoon rally. During the rally, Trump announced that he will form an independent commission to investigate assassination attempts.

He was charged with one count of making threats against the incoming president-elect and four counts of making false statements during the purchase of a firearm.

Back in 2003, Tamayo-Torres was found guilty of felony assault and given a five-year sentence in a California state prison. According to the court documents, his ex-wife served him with an order of protection last year.

A judge found illegal migrant Jose Ibarra guilty on Wednesday of murdering 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley, while she was running on the University of Georgia campus on February 22nd. 

The 26-year-old Ibarra was found guilty of murder by Athens-Clarke County Superior Court Judge Patrick Haggard and other charges that relate to Riley’s death. Ibarra had waived his right to a jury trial, which meant that it was ultimately up to Haggard to decide his fate. 

The trial began Friday, and prosecutors called over a dozen law enforcement officers, Riley’s roommates and a woman who lived in the same apartment as Ibarra. Defense attorneys called a police officer, a jogger and one of Ibarra’s neighbors on Tuesday and rested their case Wednesday morning.

Prosecutor Sheila Ross told the judge that Ibarra encountered Riley while she was out running on the University of Georgia campus on February 22nd and killed her during a struggle. 

Defense attorney Dustin Kirby stated that Riley’s death was a tragedy and that the evidence was graphic and disturbing in the case. However, he said there was not sufficient evidence to prove that Ibarra killed Riley.

He now faces life behind bars as the sentencing is set for 12:30 pm ET on Wednesday.

Chicago gangbangers rage against newly arrived Venezuelan migrants as Tren de Aragua moves in

After serving 20 years in state prison for murder, former gangbanger Tyrone Muhammad never expected to return to the city’s tough South Side to find Venezuelan migrants and criminal Tren de Aragua gang moving in. New York Post reporter Dana Kennedy shares this story. But Muhammad, 53, who’s gone straight and run a street patrol and violence prevention program called Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, says Venezuelan criminal gangs flooding shelters and taking over apartment buildings are the last straw for the struggling African-American community. He says they are furious at seeing government money going to what they call “non-citizens.” “It is impossible to release gang members and criminals into our country through the borders and broken walls and infiltrate them in our community that’s already impoverished and broken,” Muhammad told The Post last week on the O Block, a stretch along South King Drive that’s considered the most dangerous in the city.
