A federal magistrate judge in Alexandria, Virginia ordered 33-year-old Scott Allen Bolger held without bond after prosecutors charged him with transmitting interstate threats to kill Trump ally and Kennedy Center president Richard Grenell and making false statements to federal officers. According to court documents, Bolger allegedly used Google Voice to send death threats, then lied to a federal task force at his McLean home by identifying himself as 'Brian Black,' and faces up to five years in prison if convicted, as Grenell submitted a victim impact statement stressing the need to treat violent political threats seriously.
