Craig Robertson was shot and killed during an FBI raid early Wednesday morning.
A Utah man was shot and killed during an FBI raid early Wednesday morning, the FBI confirmed to ABC News. The raid was in connection with an investigation into alleged threats against President Joe Biden and others, according to two officials briefed on the case.
One of the officials told ABC News that the investigation began in April and the U.S. Secret Service was notified by the FBI in June. In addition to threatening posts, the official said, the man under investigation suggested online he was making plans to take physical action. The threats had been deemed "credible," the official said.
The FBI in Salt Lake City said the shooting occurred around 6:15 am. local time while special agents attempted to serve arrest and search warrants at a residence in Provo.
"The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously," the FBI said in a statement. "In accordance with FBI policy, the shooting incident is under review by the FBI's Inspection Division. As this is an ongoing matter, we have no further details to provide."
The deceased suspect was Craig Robertson, according to multiple sources and a federal complaint obtained by ABC News. Robertson was facing three counts, according to the complaint -- interstate threats, threats against the president, and influencing, impeding and retaliating against federal law enforcement officers by threat.
The complaint includes numerous social media posts believed to have been made by Robertson threatening to kill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as several officials involved in prosecuting former President Donald Trump.

Don’t tell me, let me guess;
This will be tonight’s leading story that a white supremacist issued a threat to Bidung and as a result he was shot while resisting arrest.
Media will celebrate and all us white guys become targets.
Weapons check time!
Some people just stay “on the radar”.
Some people are raided and shot.
“...numerous social media posts believed to have been made by Robertson threatening to kill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as several officials involved in prosecuting former President Donald Trump.”
Interesting how this happened on the day that the story about the Biden Crime Family getting $20 MILLION from Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Russia. The next story about the Biden Crime Family will result in an indictment by Willis in Georgia.
I’m sure it’s all just a coincidence.
If it had been someone who had threatened Trump, here’s what would have been different.
1) At the most, he would have got a courtesy interview by the secret service. It would have been polite. The probably would have done it over the phone or remotely or called ahead. Heh. No FBI though.
2) They’d still be alive
3) The media would celebritize ‘culprit’.
4) If they were killed, then the media would have villified the agency involved and made a martyr out of them ‘culprit.
“Wonder if he was a Freeper?”
Possible. Unfortunately, there’s at least one Freeper here who has posted a death threat/wish against another Freeper.
I’d bet it’s all on video...
Let’s see, what distraction regarding the Biden ill gotten gains was needed to counter act the release of banking records showing that Joe and Hunter brought home some bacon worth oh, say $20 million......right?????
Reminds me of the Waco Madman, they could have grabbed him easy when he went to buy ice cream at the Dairy Queen but they wanted him to barricade himself inside a fortress and put the thing ablaze. FBI, going after this guy at 6 a.m. was a MESSAGE, be fearful about how the FBI comes for you.
Probably mother’s maiden name or some other family related surname.
Waco, Ruby Ridge, Wounded Knee tells you a troubled story of the FBI.
From Alien Gonzalez, the Bundy ranch to operation Crossfire Hurricane.

Yeah. When I see Freepers posting threats on here I just shake my head. I’m certain that there are Feds who not only monitor but participate on a regular basis on these threads.
There is a theory that this Regime is a Regime of foxes, not lions.
So they are feminized and more comfortable with Longhouse style sanctions like social media cancellation, and bank account freezes, rather than straight out assassination and execution.
I’m not sure that is credible, especially if we see more of this.
A new term of a Trump Presidency threatens a lot of military industrial complex agendas and wars. They may be willing to take military action in response, and not just Longhouse BS cancellations.
Top one looks like the raid to get Elian Gonzales...
They gave him the LaVoy Finicum treatment.
One day, these “agents” are themselves going to be “served” with a warrant. /spit
Hi Lurker.
“Idaho tried that trick a while back against Lon Horiuchi. The Judge dismissed the case because he was a Federal Agent.”
Damn, I didn’t know that.

I know the Deep State does evil stuff like this, but it does kind of remind me of good advice from Chris Rock on how not to deal with the police.

Here’s a place that needs some follow-up.
