Democrat senator makes 'I hope Trump is assassinated' post
The U.S. Secret Service’s St. Louis field office “is looking into this,” the office confirmed Thursday.
Kristina Schmidt, special agent in charge, told the Post-Dispatch that “hypothetically” in such investigations, agents try to “determine intent, to determine if there was a violation of federal law. If there is, then we refer it to the U.S. attorney.”
“Our primary goal is to determine if there is intent and meaning behind it,” Schmidt said.
Richard Callahan, former U.S. attorney in St. Louis, said that generally in cases involving such threats, “we try to distinguish between ‘stupid’ and (actual) intent.” He said the “bottom line” is the question of whether the person was serious about making the threatened action happen.
Another factor, he said, is “whether it’s a person of influence. You look at the person’s station in life, whether they might have influence over others.”
