Social media account tied to mail-bomb suspect singled out Democrats
Before Cesar Sayoc was arrested and charged with sending packages containing explosive devices to prominent Democrats and CNN, he appears to have threatened them repeatedly and sometimes graphically online.
The Twitter handle @hardrock2016 tells the story.
Law enforcement officials believe the account belongs to Sayoc, who was apprehended Friday and faces five federal criminal counts, including threatening former presidents. A look at the accounts history reveals not only its owners overwhelming support for President Trump and identification with far-right political causes, but also his obsession with several of the individuals he allegedly targeted in the real world during the past week.
On Sept. 18, the social media account called former vice president Joe Biden a piece of slime trash and attached a photo of Bidens Delaware home. Two packages addressed to Biden and containing pipe bombs were discovered at mail facilities in the state on Thursday.
On Oct. 12, the account posted a photo of Sayoc at what appeared to be a Trump rally, holding a sign that said CNN SUCKS. You will just vanish, the account wrote to the network, which received a pipe bomb on Wednesday.
On Monday, the day a mail bomb was discovered in George Soross Katonah, N.Y., mailbox, the account posted a menacing image of the billionaire investor and philanthropist. The world is waking up to the horrors of George Soros, the text read.
