Florida man sentenced for threatening to assassinate Trump
A Florida man has been sentenced to more than two years in federal prison for making a threat to assassinate President Trump, according to prosecutors.
Christopher Davies, 32, of Cape Coral, was sentenced to 27 months in prison by a judge in the Middle District of Florida after pleading guilty on October 29, 2025, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
According to court documents, Davies wrote a letter to an official at the Charlotte Correctional Institution, a state prison in southwest Florida, claiming he had “orchestrated the most daring Presidential assassination that this country has ever seen” and stating that “Donald J. Trump must perish.”
Investigators said that during questioning by a U.S. Secret Service agent, Davies admitted he wrote the letter and said he wanted to kill Donald Trump. Prosecutors said Davies also claimed that if the president were near him, he would attempt to kill him with his bare hands.
Davies was serving a state prison sentence for robbery at the facility at the time the letter was written, and that sentence is scheduled to run through June 2032, according to court records.
