[OUTDATED INFO] Ron DeSantis just kidnapped a 13-year old boy.
UPDATE: This information is outdated. There have been some revelations regarding the situation, please watch this video for the update. I would also like to remind everyone that I did not and do not intend to mislead – I made this post with only Jones’ tweets to go off of three hours after the incident.
Outdated/original info under the line
——————————————————-
Earlier this evening, at around 7 PM CT U.S., Rebekah Jones (notably one of DeSantis’ biggest political enemies right now) underwent a raid on her home by state police.
Guns were pointed in the face of her 13-year old son, Jack. They arrested him under the charges of digital terrorism and “on state orders.”
They are refusing to let him go home and they are refusing to let Jones see him.
These are her screenshots recounting the incident from earlier tonight. They were taken at 10:23 PM CT U.S.
Reblog. I don’t care who you are, reblog this. We have to make sure that this doesn’t get buried – it’s already happening.

*This rating only applies to the information under the line. The video linked in the update from OP seems to be generally in line with most sources regarding this incident.
The account from Rebekah Jones is deeply misleading. Her son was arrested for making threats of a school shooting at his old middle school, as reported by multiple students. The meme above was sent, but it was other direct threats that triggered the arrest.
Source: ‘Deputies say the boy made multiple threats about shooting and killing people at Holley Navarre Middle School on different social media sites and that a number of other teens saw and received the messages from his account.’
Source: ‘The 13-year-old son of a controversial Florida data scientist was arrested Wednesday and accused of threatening to shoot up his former middle school.’
The arrest report can be read here. Identifying data is censored, but the specific threats can be read.
