Motorcycle Escort For White House Threatens to Shoot Michelle Obama

A D.C. police officer who worked as a motorcycle escort for White House officials and other dignitaries was moved to administrative duty Wednesday after he allegedly was overheard making threatening comments toward Michelle Obama, according to several police officials.

The police department’s Internal Affairs Division is investigating the alleged comments and notified the U.S. Secret Service Wednesday, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to give details of the investigation.

The motorman allegedly made the comments Wednesday morning as several officers from the Special Operations Division discussed threats against the Obamas. It was not immediately clear where the alleged conversation took place or exactly how many officers took part in the conversation.

During that conversation, the officials said, the officer allegedly said he would shoot the First Lady and then used his phone to retrieve a picture of the firearm he said he would use. It was not immediately clear what type of firearm was allegedly shown.

An officer overheard the alleged threat and reported it to a police lieutenant at the Division, who immediately notified superiors, the officials said.

“We received an allegation that inappropriate comments were made. We are currently investigating the nature of those comments,” D.C. police spokeswoman Gwendolyn Crump said in an e-mail. She declined to discuss the matter further.

Police officials declined to identify the officer. Officials from the U.S. Attorney’s office declined comment.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!

"INAPPROPRIATE COMMENT"!!! When someone says they are going to shoot you and show a picture of the gun they plan to use I call that a THREAT and not numb it down as an inappropriate comment. He should be removed from his job and investigated, PERIOD!

Inappropriate comments were made? Moved to Administration duty! No arrest, no interrogation! What does he need to do actual aim at the First Lady's head! Not good.
