Second Jail Arc: Difference between revisions

Additionally, his manager, [[Clark]], was thought to have been apprehended at his job due to his association with Daniel for the past 10 months. It was soon revealed that Clark, along with other members of Daniel's 'management,' were investigated by the authorities, who asked for information regarding the threats that Daniel had made. Afterward, Clark officially quit being Daniel's manager, and admitted to lying about everything to Daniel. This aforementioned call is speculated to have been the last contact Daniel has had with the outside world.     

This is one of the most significant events in Daniel's life, considering that, as of now, Daniel is currently at risk of being imprisoned for up to 65 years if found guilty on all charges. Many fans see this as being the final nail in the coffin, with his [[Plot Armor|plot armor]] truly breaking. This has been the most publicized aspect of Daniel's life thus far, as multiple social media accounts and news articles have covered the situation as it has unfolded.<ref>https://www.dexerto.com/tiktok/tiktoker-daniel-larson-to-remain-in-jail-due-to-mental-illness-2722839/</ref><ref>https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/daniel-larson-facing-federal-charges-and-arrest-for-bomb-threats-to-white-house-fact-checking-viral-claim-article-109829139</ref> The Second Jail Arc is also the longest period of Daniel being incarcerated, followed by the [[November 6th Arrest|November 6 Arrest]].   

On May 31, Daniel was transferred to [[wikipedia:Federal_Correctional_Institution,_Englewood|Englewood Federal Correctional Institution]], where he is currently awaiting trial for July 15, 2024. He is currently in a mental health holding facility for evaluation.  

During the summer of 2023, a Secret Service agent named [[Daniel MacDougall]] began to investigate Daniel following several terroristic threats he had made, namely one in which he said, ".. I am done, and I will not stop until the White House is blown up." This threat in particular came right off of the heels of Daniel having had a [[7/11 incident|destructive meltdown]] in a Walmart, as well as having his [[Dog Arc|dog]] taken from him. Daniel had multiple meetings with MacDougall, most notably one in which he met up with the agent and an associate of his.<ref>https://archive.org/details/p1Kq9L756V8</ref>  

Despite being told multiple times by a legitimate Secret Service agent to cease making threats against people, businesses, and government agencies, Daniel refused, doubling down by making threats against MacDougall himself.<ref>[[April 6th Meltdown]]</ref> Due to this, a case was built against Daniel which would eventually led to his arrest. Law enforcement interrogated both [[Clark]] and members of Daniel’s [[management]] “team” to confirm threats he had made over the years. This ended up being the final pieces of evidence needed to arrest Daniel.

On April 25, a warrant was issued for Daniel's arrest. This was thought to be due to Daniel having violated his probation multiple times, even before the issuing of said warrant. This notion was only exacerbated by the fact that only two days after this warrant was issued, he was [[List of places that have banned Daniel|kicked out]] of a Pumphouse restaurant by authorities on April 27,{{Citation Needed}} and the next day, he was kicked out of [[Buffalo Wild Wings ejection|Buffalo Wild Wings]] after defrauding the restaurant.  

On the evening of April 29, Daniel became inactive on every one of his [[Social Media Accounts|social media accounts]], with his last post stating that he was on the bus back to Boulder.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxsS17QYOV0UL9Eka2f4uORLmzDC1YXhJQ</ref> [[File:April30thBookingInfo.png|thumb|"Ladies and gentlemen, we got him."|left|350x350px]]Daniel is well known for making terroristic threats via social media and is speculated to have made over 100 of these threats since 2021. This habit of threat-making appeared to escalate in the weeks preceding his arrest. A prime example of this trend can be seen in the [[April 6th Meltdown]], in which Daniel repeated the phrase "bomb you!" and "kill you!," as well as threatening to vandalize several government buildings. Daniel also made numerous threats against [[Bob Proctor]] on his YouTube community tab during this time. Additionally, Daniel [[January 26th Hospital Incident|threatened to commit a mass shooting at a hospital]] after having been kicked out for loitering in January of the same year.

===Phone Call===

From a video posted by [[Larsonleak|Larsonleak raw]] on the 12th of May 2024 featuring [[Kusari]], a phone call from the 6th of May was leaked. This call is the most serious out of all of them. The calls contents contain Clark revealing everything to Daniel, from his UCLA classes being fake, to Clark not actually being a lawyer or a manager of his.  

Daniel is facing serious legal charges, including six counts of, "Use or Threatened Use of Explosive," and one count of, "Interstate Communication of Threats."<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/1cimzie/joyous_day/#lightbox</ref> Each, "Use or Threatened Use of Explosive," charge carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in federal prison. The, "Interstate Communication of Threats" charge could add another five years.<ref>https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/844#:~:text=Whoever%20transports%20or%20receives%2C%20or,or%20personal%20property%2C%20shall%20be</ref><ref>[https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/875#:~:text=(c)-,Whoever%20transmits%20in%20interstate%20or%20foreign%20commerce%20any%20communication%20containing,than%20five%20years%2C%20or%20both. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/875#:~:text=(c)-,Whoever%20transmits%20in%20interstate%20or%20foreign%20commerce%20any%20communication%20containing,than%20five%20years%2C%20or%20both.]</ref> Based off of all seven charges, the maximum jail time that Daniel could face is 65 years in prison. It is difficult to accurately estimate to the fines that Daniel may face as they range quite substantially.   

As mentioned in the calls with Clark, Daniel was assigned a public defender due to him [[Daniel Larson's Finances|not having the means]] to obtain a lawyer. His attorney was soon identified as '''Jared Scott Westbroek.''' According to Daniel, his public defender is attempting to argue that Daniel could not have carried out any of his threats as he lacked the resources to do so.
