(NewsNation) — A woman accused of making repeated death threats against President Donald Trump was arrested Saturday after speaking with NewsNation during a protest outside the White House.
Nathalie Rose Jones, 50, of Lafayette, Indiana, faces charges including threatening to kill, kidnap or harm the president, and transmitting threats across state lines, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia said.
Before her arrest, Jones told NewsNation she was protesting the government's handling of COVID-19 and criticized the administration as "authoritarian" and "fascist." She said Trump's policies cost lives by undermining vaccines and accused the president of failing to protect victims of violence.
