Who is Dylan J. Schacht accused of making bomb threat in RNC-NC?

Last edited Fri Oct 21, 2016, 01:43 PM - Edit history (1)

Can anyone find out if he is registered to vote and which party he belongs to?


HENDERSONVILLE, N.C. (AP) — A man is facing felony charges after being accused of making a bomb threat against a GOP office in North Carolina.

The Hendersonville Police Department said in a news release that the Henderson County party headquarters received a bomb threat Thursday morning on the organization's voicemail, prompting an evacuation. The State Bureau of Investigation swept the building with a bomb dog and found no explosives.

Authorities say they were able to trace the call back to 24-year-old Dylan J. Schacht, of Hendersonville, who was arrested and charged with one count of terrorism and one count of filing a false report concerning a destructive device.

The threat came just days after someone firebombed the Orange County Republican headquarters.

It is unclear whether Schacht has an attorney.

I googled his name and the above is what popped up. I have never seen anything like that when just googling a name before.

But I was sure how to find out his party affiliation.

That's a pretty big house payment for his income bracket.

The more I look at the name, the more it sounds familiar. I have only seen that show a couple times but the area is really back woods with a lot of drug activity and a lot of drinking problems.

in illegal activities. Not trying to make any unnecessary judgments. However, he did make a bomb threat!

But it does sound like he would support Stein, if anyone. He could also be motivated by just being sick of this election season, too.

So he called up the GOP HQ and left a bunch of voicemails with profanity and threats. In at least one of the voicemails he said he planted a bomb.
He made the calls from his cell phone, so police easily found him.

He's registered to vote but not affiliated with any party.

If you're their good friend, don't run your mouth about them because it just may hurt them, and encourage your good friend to lawyer up ASAP. Because they're in real trouble.
