FLORIDA — A Miami-area man has been arrested for threatening to kill Republican Rep. Jose Felix Diaz in a Facebook post.
Steve St. Felix, 33, allegedly wrote he would kill the lawmaker if he showed up to a political meeting.
Miami-Dade police say St. Felix confessed to making the threat and told investigators he was “fed up with the Republican party” but didn’t intend to harm anyone. He also said he had not taken his medication.
The suspect was charged with making written threats to kill or do bodily injury.
According to NBC Miami, St. Felix was ‘already out on bond for threatening another public servant and burglary. He was ordered held on $500,000 bond and told to have no contact with Diaz.’
It was unclear if he had a lawyer.
