Imprisoned Individual Confesses to Penning Trump Menace Letters, Intending to Falsely Accuse Immigrant, Alleges Court Document
Falsely Accused, Not Framed:
Ramon Morales-Reyes, the man DHS Secretary Kristi Noem publicly accused of penning letters threatening President Donald Trump, was actually framing him, claim sources. It seems another inmate, Demetric D. Scott, was the one who concocted the threat against the President, not to harm him but to eliminate a key witness, Morales-Reyes[4][5].
You might wonder, "Why the deception?" Well, Scott, a 52-year-old man, wanted to get his hands free for an upcoming robbery trial, by having Morales-Reyes, his intended victim in the robbery, deported[6].
During an interview with officials, Morales-Reyes, 54, revealed that Scott was the only one with a motive to implicate him[1]. Scott was so desperate to frame Morales-Reyes that he even forged the threatening letters[4]. When Morales-Reyes submitted to a handwriting test, it didn't match the handwriting in the letter, clarifying Scott's role in the deception[6].
Scott, unfortunately, was caught red-handed. His jail cell was searched, and they found the blue pen he used to write the threatening letters[7]. During his interview with police, Scott fessed up, confessing he wrote the letters himself and fabricated the whole scheme[6]. Scott explained his motivation: "Freedom," he claimed, as he wanted to escape the consequences of the robbery trial he was facing[7].
Apparently, Scott thought that involving Trump in the threat would escalate matters and force the Secret Service to get involved[7]. Smart move? Not exactly, Scott. You messed with the wrong guys, pal.
- The video footage of Ramon Morales-Reyes' interview with officials revealed that Demetric D. Scott, not him, was the one who forged the threatening letters against President Donald Trump.
- The general-news outlets, following the unfolding of this story, noted that Scott's motive was to frame Morales-Reyes to avoid his upcoming robbery trial and ensure his deportation.
- The revelation of Scott's deception casts doubts on the political accusations made by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, who had publicly named Morales-Reyes as the author of the threatening letters.
- In the realm of crime-and-justice, this case serves as a stark reminder of the lengths some individuals will go to escape the consequences of their actions, even if it means falsely implicating innocent individuals in serious crimes.
