Today, the court is reviewing whether Samuel Cain—who threatened to murder me—should be released on bond for the third time.
Earlier this year, the defendant issued a direct and explicit threat to murder me. Because of the seriousness of this threat, the court has already denied his bond twice. Since his arrest, the danger has not diminished, it has escalated.
While in custody, during a discussion about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a jailhouse informant asked the defendant whether he would kill me if given the opportunity.
According to the informant, the defendant answered, “yes.”
In a time of rising political violence, especially following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, we cannot afford even one mistake. One mistake is the difference between life and death.
