FROM DAILY MAIL: A man from Minnesota with a criminal record and ties to extremist ideology has been arrested after his $45,000 bounty for US Attorney General Pam Bondi went viral on TikTok.
Tyler Maxon Avalos from St Paul was detained on October 16 in Ramsey County on charges of interstate transmission of a threat to injure the person of another.
The 30-year-old, who has a prior history of convictions, shared a wanted poster online with a target on the forehead of the attorney general and asked that she be turned in, ‘preferably dead’.
According to court documents, the chilling post included a photo of Bondi with a “sniper-scope red dot” on her forehead with the caption: “WANTED: Pam Bondi / REWARD: 45,000 ‘ DEAD OR ALIVE / (PREFERABLY DEAD).”
Avalos allegedly wrote under the post, “Cough cough. When they don’t serve us, then what?”
The feds allege Avalos has anarchist ties. His TikTok username was “Wacko,” apparently an anarchy symbol.
Avalos was previously convicted in July 2022 of stalking in Minnesota and domestic battery in Florida in 2016.
According to court filings from October 22, US Magistrate Judge Douglas Micko has allowed Avalos to be released from custody, but he may not travel outside of Minnesota and can not possess weapons. He is prohibited from consuming alcohol, has a curfew, is monitored by GPS, and needs approval to access the internet, according to reports.
