An Alabama man is behind bars after threatening to assassinate President Joe Biden.
John Bazor, a resident of Mobile, phoned the White House on July 10th at 9:37 p.m. and brazenly told the operator that he was coming to kill Biden.
“I am coming to assassinate the president. I can’t wait to see your faces when I put a bullet in him,” Bazor said during the call. The man continued harassing government officials by visiting Mobile’s U.S. Secret Service office and leaving multiple threatening voicemails the weekend before he called the White House. A civilian tenant in the same building as the local Secret Service office reported seeing a man resembling Bazor in the lobby on July 8th, claiming that the agency had ruined his life. He also called the State Department and the CIA.
On Monday, Secret Service agents located Bazor in a motel on Satchel Paige Drive. According to the complaint, he admitted that his phone number was used to make the call to the White House. When asked why he wanted to harm Biden, Bazor initially said he didn’t before admitting that he indeed wanted to assassinate the president.
Bazor’s mother told agents that her son struggled with meth addiction, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. She stated that she’d tried to get him help on numerous occasions. He’d previously threatened to blow up the Towne Place Suites in Mobile and was admitted to Providence Hospital but was released shortly after. Bazor’s mother says she fears her son and sleeps with her keys in her pillowcase so that he doesn’t try stealing her car.
The 37-year-old has not shied away from his hate for Biden. He urged Facebook friends to sign a petition for Biden’s impeachment.
A judge has ordered a psychiatric evaluation to decide if Bazor is competent enough to stand trial. He remains in jail, charged with making threats against the president. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.
