Jeffrey Alan Voss, 31, was sentenced to five years of probation on April 9 for posting violent threats on Facebook and was in custody for six months prior, according to the US Department of Justice.
The videos posted between Sept. 24 and 27, 2024, included two in which Voss held a firearm and in another discussing becoming “the next Kip Kinkel.” Kinkel was a school shooter who killed his parents and two people at Thurston High School in Springfield, Oregon, in 1998 and injured 25 others.
After Voss claimed he was minutes away from a high school and made violent threats, a criminal complaint was filed reporting the live videos posted, and the Eugene Police Department arrested Voss following the report.
Following an FBI search warrant on Oct. 1, 2024, at Voss’ house in Eugene, agents discovered and seized two firearms, a replica firearm, ammunition, body armour and a handwritten note on his desires for vengeance and individuals he wanted to harm.
Voss was indicted by a federal grand jury in Eugene on Nov. 5, 2024, and pleaded guilty to the charges on March 6.
