Yesterday, the Feds @USAttyBrady & @FBIPittsburgh unsealed charges and arrested a Pennsylvania man Khaled Miah for threatening FBI agents. It started with a YouTube comment, travel to DC, built up more with a search of his house, and ended in handcuffs. Follow along. 1/x
After getting a tip on a YouTube comment, the fbi interviewed Miah, this started a chain of events where Miah allegedly doxed an agents wife, showed up at FBI Pittsburgh HQ, and made a series of threats
After the FBI initial interview and the day before a search warrant was executed, Miah was allegedly tweeting about the Agent. He showed up at his house the next month. He also traveled to Boston and DC in an purported homage to the Boston bomber.
Miah is the 222nd US person known to be charged with ISIS related criminal activity. We’ve uploaded the court document here.
