| Google alerts FBI to Colorado threat against cops |
| 2014-12-25 |
| A Colorado man is facing federal charges Wednesday after he allegedly posted threats against police in YouTube's comment section under the username, "Vets Hunting Cops." 9News.com reported the police identified the man as Jeremiah Perez, a 33-year-old Air Force veteran from Colorado Springs. He was arrested Monday. Police, who were alerted by Google about the posts, say they traced the IP address back to Perez's home. "The perceived anonymity of the Internet will not serve as a shield for espousing violence in violation of federal law," a federal agent told the station. The report said that Perez was under investigation since Dec. 17 and authorities eventually obtained a search warrant. |
