RUTHERFORD COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — A man is being charged after being accused of threatening FEMA workers in western North Carolina, according to the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office.

At around 12:54 p.m. on Saturday, deputies got a report of a man with an assault rifle who made a comment about possibly harming FEMA workers providing Hurricane Helene disaster relief in the area of Lake Lure and Chimney Rock.


Investigators went to the location where the threat was made in Polk County, obtained a description of the suspect vehicle and shared it with other law enforcement.

The suspect was later identified as William Jacob Parsons, 44, of Bostic. Parsons was taken into custody and charged with going armed to the terror of the public.

2. He gets bailed out on what looks like a misdemeanor charge.

Shouldn't the feds charge him with threats against a federal employee?

3. We'll see. ...

He looks scary and perturbed. And like an idiot.

7. Time to met out some consequences.

Oh, wait. This is red ass North Carolina. He has been charged with what, again?



The feds need to step in with some National Guard assistance in Rutherford as well as charge this traitor to his country and his state with federal crimes. Do not rely on 'local' law enforcement in regard to actual justice. It may not be there.

(If we can remove the supermajority in the Assembly, we could fix this crap. We really need to start working on that.)
