Police were dispatched toward Smith’s residence but were called off when they learned it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.
Special counsel Jack Smith, who is overseeing the prosecution of former President Donald Trump in two federal cases, was the target of an attempted swatting at his Maryland residence on Christmas Day.
According to two law enforcement sources, someone called 911 and said that Smith had shot his wife at the address where Smith lives.
Montgomery County Police dispatched units toward the home but were called off when the Deputy U.S. Marshals protecting Smith and his family told police that it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.
No arrests have been made in connection with the incident.
They’ll get whoever did this. The feds don’t take getting messed with lightly
So far I’ve not ever seen any news articles about people calling in a swatting getting caught, but plenty of articles on swatting.
What makes you so confident that the rancid basement troll that did this will face consequences?
People get arrested for swatting all the time
