Because the Biden administration has repeatedly refused to provide Secret Service protection to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the 2024 presidential hopeful would have had to deal directly with a stalker who broke into his home twice in one day.
Kennedy was to obtain a restraining order against Jonathan Macht, 28, who reportedly broke into the Brentwood, Calif., home in late October when the candidate and his wife Cheryl Hines were at home. The young Pacific Palisades real estate agent also allegedly sent Kennedy more than 400 “harassing emails.”
“He wrote me 435 emails in a three-month period, including one last week, which was about him putting a bullet in my brain,” Kennedy said. said of the suspect who was arrested by his own private security team. But after receiving an emergency protection order, Macht returned to the Kennedy home where he was arrested again.
According to the candidate's campaign, the private security firm notified the Secret Service in recent months of “this obsessed individual” and provided the emails that were written.
But the son of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in 1968, struck a deal with Macht, who agreed to a five-year deal in which he would not “harass, intimidate, attack, assault, threaten, assault, beat, abuse, destroy, personal property or disturb the peace of Robert F Kennedy Jr.”,
“Macht said he would not directly or indirectly contact Kennedy or take any action to obtain Kennedy's address or location,” RadarOnline said. reported, citing court records. “At all times, Macht agreed to stay 100 yards from Robert F Kennedy, his wife Cheryl Hines and other family members. Further, Macht said he would not purchase or attempt to receive any firearms.”
Kennedy has repeatedly asked President Joe Biden to provide him with Secret Service protection, given his family history, with his uncle, President John F. Kennedy also assassinated, and current incidents that have threatened his security.
Adrian Paul Aispuro, 44, was identified by police in September after he was arrested and charged with impersonating a U.S. Marshal at a Kennedy campaign event in Los Angeles.
In accordance with daily mail:
Under 18 USC 3056(a)(7), major party candidates polling above 15% and independent candidates polling above 20% are eligible for Secret Service protection.
The late Senator Ted Kennedy, the candidate's uncle, received Secret Service protection 441 days before the 1980 presidential election, in which he challenged Democratic President Jimmy Carter.
Former President Barack Obama received Secret Service protection 551 days before the 2008 election due to racist threats while running in the Democratic primary.
“If they give Bobby protection, they recognize that he's running as a political candidate,” Hines said of the Biden administration's refusal to fill Kennedy's security application.
Applications for federal protection have been denied by DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
“It's disappointing to say the least that the administration is not giving Bobby protection,” Hines. said in an interview earlier this month.
“They know what's going on and they know what happened,” the actress added. “I can't believe they don't answer.”
