Story Highlights

25-year-old Zachary Charles Newell arrested after posting YouTube threats to kill 20 Black preschool children
Google reported the violent threats to FBI within days, enabling rapid law enforcement response
FBI Director Kash Patel condemned the “unacceptable acts of cowardice” and praised interagency cooperation
Federal charges filed for interstate threats to kidnap or injure, with no ongoing community threat

Swift Federal Response Prevents Tragedy

Zachary Charles Newell, 25, of Newport, North Carolina, was arrested September 1st after allegedly posting explicit threats on YouTube targeting Black preschool children. The suspect used the username “CommentatorsHateMe” to post racially motivated threats on August 26th and 27th, including a declaration of intent to “shoot up” a preschool and harm 20 Black children. Google’s rapid reporting to the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center on August 31st enabled law enforcement to act before any violence occurred.

Trump Administration’s FBI Delivers Results

FBI Director Kash Patel’s strong leadership demonstrates the Trump administration’s commitment to protecting children from domestic terrorism. Patel condemned these “unacceptable acts of cowardice” while emphasizing the agency’s dedication to child safety. This stands in stark contrast to the Biden administration’s misplaced priorities, which often focused on targeting concerned parents at school board meetings rather than genuine threats to children’s safety.

Law Enforcement Coordination Protects Community

The Carteret County Sheriff’s Office executed the arrest at Newell’s residence, working seamlessly with federal authorities. Sheriff Asa Buck described the threats as “violent, hateful and shocking to the conscience,” assuring parents that law enforcement remains vigilant against such dangers. The coordinated response between Google, the FBI, and local authorities prevented what could have been an unthinkable tragedy targeting the most vulnerable members of our society.

Federal Charges Ensure Justice

Newell now faces federal charges in the Eastern District of North Carolina for interstate threats to kidnap or injure. The serious federal prosecution sends a clear message that targeting children with racially motivated violence will face the full weight of federal law. Officials confirm there is no ongoing threat to local schools or the community, with authorities conducting thorough investigations to ensure public safety. This case exemplifies how proper law enforcement priorities and rapid response can prevent domestic terrorism before it claims innocent lives.
