Bondi Announces Arrest Of Man Accused Of Threatening To Kill Another Leading Conservative

Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi on Friday announced the arrest of a man accused of threatening to kill conservative commentator Benny Johnson, in what authorities say was a disturbing copycat plot inspired by the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

Authorities arrested George Isabel Jr. after he allegedly mailed a letter threatening to make “orphans” of Johnson’s children just days after Kirk’s assassination, Bondi told reporters during a press conference in Tampa, The New York Post

“Benny received a letter at his home where he and [his wife] Kate are raising their beautiful, beautiful young family,” Bondi said outside the U.S. Attorney’s Office. “The author of this letter made it very clear that he hated Benny because of his views and he wanted Benny dead.”

Isabel is charged in federal court with mailing threatening communications. If convicted, Bondi said, the man — whom she described as a “left-wing radical” — will face prison time.

Standing beside Bondi, Johnson revealed chilling details about the letter’s contents and the political hatred behind it.

“The individual who wrote me described why he wanted me dead: I was a white, cis, Christian Trump supporter,” Johnson said. “They described in great detail how I would be killed in an open field just like Charlie. How much blood would come out of my head and neck when it would come off.”

“This individual described orphaning my four children and widowing my beautiful wife with great joy,” he said.

Bondi said the arrest was part of a broader effort to crack down on politically motivated threats and violence.
