Crime 2nd 4chan user accused of making death threat against Volusia Sheriff Mike Chitwood - The sheriff’s office said the FBI traced the threats to the California man, who confessed after being shown a picture of it.

ORLANDO, Fla. – A California man is in custody after he threatened to kill Volusia County Sheriff Mike Chitwood, according to investigators.

Tyler Meyer, 30, was arrested Friday by the San Diego Police Department.

The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office said the FBI flagged Meyer’s threat against Chitwood via an anonymous post on a political board on the website 4chan.

“It’s too bad Mike Chitwood isn’t safe now that I’m planning to kill him. I’m going to shoot Mike Chitwood. I’m going to kill him by shooting him to death,” the threat said, according to the FBI.

The sheriff’s office said the FBI traced the threats to Meyer, who confessed after being shown a picture of it. Several guns, ammunition and electronics were also seized from Meyer’s home, the sheriff’s office said.

Volusia County’s sheriff has come under fire from groups for his condemnation of antisemitic demonstrations in the county, such as incidents in Daytona Beach during the Daytona 500 and in Ormond Beach last month.

Chitwood and his family have received threatening or harassing messages from several groups as a result.

On March 13 a man, Richard Golden, was arrested in New Jersey for making a threat against Chitwood. He was extradited to Florida this week.

Meyer is charged with making a written threat to kill or injure, a second-degree felony. He is expected to be extradited to Volusia County.

Look at what the response was.

This is what the arrested 4tranny said, (I did not say this fedfags). The part I've bolded is the most obvious point that this is a joke threat, compounded by the repetition from before. None of these people should be arrested for this shit and a sheriff in Florida shouldn't have the jurisdiction over a random posted in Cali or one in NJ. That's the FBI helping that to happen.

It's stupid. Absolutely retarded. The man was in fucking California. I doubt he had much means to get down there given he lurked /pol/. Still he should have been more cautious with this retard.

How the fuck is one sheriff getting multiple states to commit this many constitutional violations. Fucker must’ve been best friends with Epstein and the Bogandoffs to command this much clout.

Disclaimer: the above statement is a joke and is in no way reflective of reality. Readers should not believe that Chitwood had any relation to either of those individuals. Any assumption of wrong doing is completely unwarranted at this time. Please don’t sue/arrest me.

I like to think Shitwood has put his deputies on a 24 hr rotation reading 4chan threads looking for anyone mentioning his name. With daily reports on the worst and nicest posts.

Spoiler

Thats probably not far from the truth

I hope they see my post so we can enjoy some tasty frozen treats together. I assume that if they track down people who make “threats” they will also track down people who say nice things to say thank you.

I for one fully and unironically believes Chitwood uses his position to sexually assault people and deserves to be punished for those crimes. He also tagged team an underage girl with President Joe Biden.

In the same realm as this user, I 100% did not witness Chitwood jerking off both Bogandoffs in a Kentucky truckstop bathroom in 1998 while he was also getting assfucked by Epstein. I was not in Kentucky then at all. I'm also legally blind, so I could not have seen it. But there's also no evidence that I was not there. This statement is false.

this reads like an ironic shitpost tbh

It exactly does. This post would have been one of those made in reaction to the initial story of the New Jersey poster getting arrested. The fed does not care and there are no joke clauses in the legality about supposed "threats" not like the FBI wouldn't trample over that if there were.

I think some of them are realizing and coming here, noticing a lot of new March accounts

He's probably got an inferiority complex from being called "Shitwood" his whole life.

Very optimistic that many aren't new feds trying to catch people. Years ago we had Sigsigev get screwed over for a joke fedpost, there have to be so many more eyes here now, not to mention those actively attempting to warp narratives.

dysgenic retards, both of them
- site forbidding VPN
- using home IPs

*police shows up, surprised pikachu face "I dindu nuffin officer!"

do we even know how that turned out? i only know that feds contacted null for information about the user, null (probably) turned it over and banned the guy
but did the feds ever actually pick the guy up IRL? did he get charged or even convicted? or did they accept his "just a prank bro" defense and let him go?

 

[Übertroon]

I wish someone would prank Shittwood, like cutting the brakes on his car prank

I've heard that he abandoned kf and started shitposting on the onion farms, so likely not much came of it. The fact remains the FBI thought it was a good waste of resources.

Oh half of me thinks so, especially the low post/score accounts. That and the very 4channy ones- looking at that Wenzel guy honestly, talks too much about being white

They're retarded for the first two reasons, but at least the NJ guy wasn't even directly threatening. This guy's more blatant but neither of them should have ever been arrested. With the FBI involved it could easily be figured out these guys were never going to follow through. But no, waste the time and resources of multiple state pds, establish bad precedents for future prosecution against online speech. The worst of this is the FBI involvement, wasting resources they could be using to stop the school shooters they keep saying they had data on already.

Is this an "I am Spartacus Moment?" Should we all just start threatening to kill that Sheriff?

Just remember ALL CAPS when you spell the name.

Oh I get it, they're going to 8chan the 4channers now.

Oh well, site hasn't been good since 2014 anyway.
