A judge approved a request from prosecutors to detain Bradley Nelson, who had been out on bail since his initial arrest in March 2023 related to the Capitol incident. According to court documents, Nelson posted a disturbing image of Barrett along with a violent comment in June 2024, expressing a wish for her harm shortly after the Supreme Court&#8217;s decision in Fischer v. United States\u2014a ruling that could benefit him regarding one of his charges. In addition to targeting Barrett, he also shared an image of Garland with crosshairs over his head and made aggressive comments about New York Attorney General Letitia James. Furthermore, he posted videos containing confrontational remarks aimed at two FBI agents involved in his case. The judge noted concerns about Nelson&#8217;s escalating threats and indicated that while no date has been set for a revocation hearing regarding his detention, there is sufficient reason for it due to the nature of his comments. Nelson is currently awaiting trial scheduled for December 10 on nonviolent charges such as obstructing an official proceeding and disorderly conduct<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":2320689,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/AP22210059283603-1024x590.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[37472,37473,4855],"class_list":["post-2320688","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-jan6","tag-rearrested","tag-threats"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/AP22210059283603-1024x590.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2320688","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/49"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2320688"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2320688\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2320689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2320688"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2320688"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2320688"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
