Martin County, Fla. — A Stuart man is accused of threatening Republican representative Brian Mast's children over the Trump administration's immigration policy.
According to an FBI report, Laurence Key called Mast's Washington office Monday and said, "I'm going to find the congressman's kids and kill them," according to the complaint filed in U.S. District Court, Key went on to say, "If you are going to separate kids at the border, I'm going to kill his kids."
Mr. Key has previously called Mast's office more than 475 times, and recently contacted the offices of Senators Marco Rubio and Bill Nelson.
Key who was recently arrested in St. Lucie County, is charged with communication of a threat to kidnap or injure a person.
