Police were dispatched toward Smith’s residence but were called off when they learned it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.

Special counsel Jack Smith, who is overseeing the prosecution of former President Donald Trump in two federal cases, was the target of an attempted swatting at his Maryland residence on Christmas Day.

According to two law enforcement sources, someone called 911 and said that Smith had shot his wife at the address where Smith lives.

Montgomery County Police dispatched units toward the home but were called off when the Deputy U.S. Marshals protecting Smith and his family told police that it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.

No arrests have been made in connection with the incident.

    Oh go on, come up with something instead of just downvoting me. I know it’s hard, actual work even, but you’re never gonna change minds otherwise.

    Dude, I just responded to you and did not downvote, calm down. Maybe take some of your own advice about anger?

        who’s angry?

        REALLY bro? Pretty obvious the snarky douche arguing all over this thread has some serious anger management issues.

            “What about “frustrated” do you not understand?” the part that motivated you to become angry while ignoring the content of the replies made to your comment. But that is just what I don’t understand.
