FLORIDA - A Florida man has been arrested by federal authorities after allegedly making violent threats on social media targeting individuals linked to Jeffrey Epstein’s client list.
Terrell Bailey-Corsey, 30, faces charges after posting violent messages that threatened to harm those connected to the late financier's notorious circle.
According to an FBI criminal complaint filed in the Middle District of Florida, Bailey-Corsey allegedly posted on X (formerly Twitter) on July 15th, claiming that he would use a machete to kill everyone associated with Epstein.
One post allegedly read, "I will KILL EVERYONE ON THE LIST. ON SIGHT. AND THEY ABSOLUTELY DESERVE IT."
The complaint details a series of threatening posts Bailey-Corsey allegedly made between June 22nd and July 15th, including statements targeting government officials.
In one post, he allegedly threatened, "I WILL [EXPLETIVE] KILL YOU ON SIGHT" and expressed a desire to kill politicians.
Bailey-Corsey also reportedly made similar threats on Facebook, including a video targeting another government official.
The FBI investigation revealed that Bailey-Corsey admitted to making these posts and expressed remorse.
Authorities found that he owned several weapons, including a machete, a knife, and a bow and arrow.
Bailey-Corsey has been charged with transmitting a threat across state lines under 18 U.S.C. § 875(c), a federal law prohibiting such actions.
His arrest follows increased public interest in Epstein's sex trafficking case, with the Department of Justice recently moving to unseal grand jury transcripts.
