Washington – A Kansas man accused of threatening President Joe Biden and multiple U.S. Secret Service agents is set to appear in a Baltimore federal courtroom on Wednesday, where a judge will decide whether he should be detained pending trial.
Prosecutors allege that Scott Ryan Merryman, a 37-year-old from Independence, Kansas, drove from his home to Maryland, and made multiple phone calls along the way to law enforcement informing them that he was going to "cut the head off the snake in the heart of the nation" and that God had told him to drive to Washington, D.C., to see the president.
Charging documents filed late last week said, "Merryman denied that the serpent was the President of the United States, but stated that he had information about the Book of Revelation that he was being instructed by God to give to the President."
