A New York resident is facing significant charges for allegedly calling for federal immigration officers and their children to be murdered.
On Tuesday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced the arrest of 43-year-old Matthew White of Jamestown, NY.
White is accused of making a “number of threatening posts on X” against Department of Homeland Security personnel and their family members.
On June 4, White was interviewed by investigators who received permission to extract data from his phone, including the following public statements, per ICE:
- On April 18, White posted, “Kill them all, ICE is the new age gestapo, stop them.”
- On April 29, White shared a video clip of Border Czar Tom Homan posted by an X user “America,” and commented, “Then understand that if your ICE agents don’t show proof of identity and a signed warrant, we will kill them.”
- In late April, White posted multiple threatening and violent public comments in response to coverage of several ICE arrest operations, including an ICE arrest operation inside a Virginia courthouse that occurred in April 2025. White posted, “I can’t wait to put a bullet into this guy’s brain, but first his children.”
White was arrested on July 1 and charged with communicating interstate threats.
He made an initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeremiah J. McCarthy that afternoon, and was conditionally released.
“The defendant stands accused of making vile threats against officers and agents who risk their lives every day to uphold an oath they swore to protect the public — even those who wish them harm. There is no place in our community for such hate against any human beings, including and especially innocent children,” said ICE Homeland Security Investigations Buffalo Special Agent in Charge Erin Keegan.
“Let it be known, HSI Buffalo is unflinchingly committed to finding and investigating any individuals who threaten, or who are intent on hurting, members of our law enforcement community.”
An investigation is ongoing.
