An Alabama woman who identifies as a masc lesbian is facing federal prosecution after allegedly vowing on social media to put a bullet through President Donald Trump if he attended a high-profile college football game in Tuscaloosa.
According to The Post Millennial, a criminal complaint filed in the US District Court for the Northern District of Alabama accuses 32-year-old Megan Lorraine Utz of issuing threats against the president and transmitting threatening communications. The case centers on a Facebook post in which Utz allegedly shared a news story about Trumps planned appearance at the October 10 AlabamaGeorgia matchup and declared, Hes not allowed in my stadium! Ill put a bullet through him if he dares.
The accompanying FBI affidavit outlines how federal agents traced the threat to Utz through her social media footprint and state records. Investigators say a Facebook account under the name Kase Utz shared a WHNT News 19 article about Trumps visit around October 5, attaching the alleged threat to the post.
Agents compared the Facebook profile photo to Utzs Alabama drivers license, noting that both images showed the same individual with a distinctive neck tattoo. They then issued an emergency disclosure request to Meta, which, according to the affidavit, produced a birth date matching Utzs license and recent location data pointing to an address in Florence, Alabama.
Investigators also uncovered a September 27, 2025 TikTok video showing Utz at an AlabamaGeorgia football game, reinforcing her apparent interest in the event Trump was scheduled to attend. Another photograph located by agents showed her posing with a former Alabama football player, accompanied by a caption celebrating the encounter.
On October 6, FBI agents, Secret Service personnel, and Florence police converged on a Salvation Army facility in Florence where they believed Utz had recently been staying. Staff members reported that she had departed in a light blue pickup truck and might be staying at a nearby squatter house, prompting agents to search the surrounding area.
Officers soon spotted a light blue truck outside a residence on Midway Street that matched the description provided by Salvation Army employees. As agents spoke with a man outside the home, Utz allegedly opened the front door, made eye contact with an agent, and then shut and locked the door, according to the affidavit.
A second man at the residence granted officers permission to enter and search for Utz, allowing agents to conduct a sweep of the property. Afterward, a third man informed investigators that Utz had fled on foot and pointed them toward the direction she had taken.
Florence police officers pursued and arrested Utz on an outstanding misdemeanor warrant for harassing communications issued by the Guin Police Department. During a search incident to arrest, officers seized a cellphone from her, which was later transferred to the Tennessee Valley Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory for analysis.
Following her arrest, Utz agreed to an interview after being advised of her Miranda rights, according to the affidavit. She told agents she could not remember the last time she had accessed Facebook, distancing herself from the timing of the alleged threat.
When asked why she had made the threatening post, Utz replied, I just wanted my phone scanned . . . and the next time that this happens, somebody always gets hurt, and someone always dies. Pressed on whether someone else had accessed her phone to make the post, she claimed that malware applications were stealing her password and insisted that her device had been compromised.
Utz described what she characterized as hacking activity on her phone and posed a rhetorical question to investigators: How am I going to shoot him? She further told agents she had suffered 18 concussions and had previously been prescribed medications including Valium, Vistaril, and Buspar, while recounting numerous hospital visits across Alabama, including a stay at DCH Regional Medical Center in Tuscaloosa.
Her Facebook activity, as described in the affidavit, reflects a pattern of hostile rhetoric toward Republicans, including a post in which she wrote, You die by lethal injection! The account also features a series of anti-Israel posts and commentary about arrested and convicted offenders, suggesting a broader fixation on political and criminal themes.
A federal grand jury has now indicted Utz on two felony counts: threats against the president and interstate transmission of threatening communication, the Department of Justice announced on October 22. Each charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in federal prison, along with potential fines, underscoring that violent political rhetoricwhether cloaked in online bluster or ideological ragecan carry very real legal consequences in an era when law enforcement is increasingly scrutinizing threats against public officials.
