A Florida man living just over 20 miles outside of Mar-a-Lago has been arrested for posting multiple threats against President Donald Trump.

The Jupiter Police Department (JPD) late Friday night announced the arrest of one Glen DeCicco on charges of "Making Written Threats to Kill" the President.

"The investigation began after JPD was alerted to a concerning Facebook post," a statement reads. "Detectives reviewed DeCicco’s social media activity and confirmed that he had made a written threat directed at the President."

The JPD notes that they coordinated with the Secret Service to investigate DeCicco and take him into custody.

The Sammis Law Firm reveals that a "Written Threat to Kill or Do Bodily Injury" is a second-degree felony punishable by up to fifteen years in prison.

DeCicco appears to have been a winner in the 'fool around and find out' sweepstakes.

A quick perusal of his Facebook page and the community groups he subscribes to shows a man who posts often about the President. He posted images of Trump around the time of the Butler assassination attempt in which he suggests that Trump was making a Nazi salute as the Secret Service swarmed to protect him.

While that is the mark of a genuinely unhinged mind, DeCicco recently escalated his comments. As of this morning, the posts likely in question are still up on Facebook.

On Friday morning, he cryptically wrote, "Ass-ass-inate."

He followed that up just seven minutes later, writing, "Winning strategy: buy QQQ, sell SQQQ today; shoot Trump tomorrow."

Police state that they interviewed DeCicco about his posts, and he was taken into custody without incident.

President Trump has already been the target of two significant assassination attempts.

The first occurred during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024, where he was shot and wounded in the ear. Corey Comperatore, a retired volunteer fire chief, was killed in the assassination attempt as he protected his wife and daughter, and another man was injured. 

The second attempt happened in September 2024 at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, where a man, Ryan Wesley Routh, was apprehended after being spotted with a rifle near the golf course.

An Ann Arbor, Michigan, man was arrested on Election Day for threatening to kill Christian conservatives if Trump won the presidency.

Just two weeks ago, another Florida man was arrested for social media threats against the President. Authorities report that 42-year-old Kendal Aaron Todd challenged Trump, who he described as the "Antichrist," to “fight me naked to the death.”

With political tensions escalating again as Democrats refuse to condemn violence against Elon Musk and the Trump administration, it's clear law enforcement is taking these social media threats seriously. As they should.
