Anthony Daniel Palazzolo: Michigan man arrested for alleged death threats against Kash Patel
A Michigan man accused of threatening FBI Director Kash Patel and other federal officials was arrested and appeared in federal court Friday.
Anthony Daniel Palazzolo, a 42-year-old man from Chesterfield Township, Michigan, was arrested on Friday for allegedly making death threats against FBI Director Kash Patel, according to prosecutors. Palazzolo allegedly sent multiple threatening messages to an associate of Patel through Facebook, in which he referred to Patel as a "dead mf" and claimed he had placed a "hit" on the FBI director.
In a phone conversation with an FBI agent, Palazzolo reportedly threatened to use "deadly force against every single one of you government officials" and stated his intention to visit the bureau's Detroit field office. The FBI is investigating the allegations, and Palazzolo appeared before a federal court on Friday, where he was temporarily detained. The case is now moving through the federal judicial process.
