Bond set at $1 million for frequently arrested Jan. 6 rioter on new charges

A right-wing influencer who injected himself into a racially charged murder trial was arrested Tuesday and charged with making terroristic threats — his second arrest this month in connection with his activities around the high-profile North Texas case.

Florida-based activist Jake Lang was booked into Dallas County jail after allegedly stating that if the jury did not find Karmelo Anthony guilty he "would take care of it himself," and a judge set his bond at $1 million, reported The Dallas Morning News.

................


Lang's arrest capped weeks of escalating provocations around a case that had already drawn national attention and ignited a torrent of racist rhetoric because Anthony is Black and Metcalf was white.

It was Lang's second arrest this month. On June 2, he was charged with criminal trespass outside Frisco City Hall during a "Rally Against Rednecks" — a charge stemming from an April incident in which Lang hosted a sparsely attended "Protect White Americans" rally outside the stadium where the stabbing occurred........................

Jake Lang is a January 6 rioter who was previously pardoned by Donald Trump. He came to North Texas during the Karmelo Anthony murder trial and positioned himself outside the courthouse in support of the prosecuting family.

According to authorities, Lang is now in the Dallas County Jail on a terroristic threat charge, held on a $1 million bond tied to this case. He is accused of making violent threats during the trial and using racist language while targeting Karmelo Anthony and his supporters.

Racial slurs and threats have no place in our courts or our communities. Karmelo Anthony and his family deserve safety and a fair process free from intimidation.
