The U.S. Navy Seal -- who fired the fatal shot that killed Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden -- has received personalized death threats from an Islamic State (IS) supporter, the Clarion Project website reports today (October 8, 2015).
Former marine Rob O'Neill had his address in Butte, Montana posted online by an Islamic State-affiliated Twitter account.
Undersheriff George Skuletich of the Butte-Silver Bow Law Enforcement Department told the media that O'Neill no longer lives in Butte, but the threat had been received and was being taken seriously by law-enforcement officers.
The Twitter account belonged to Sally Jones, a British convert to Islam who traveled to Syria and joined the Islamic State. She was married to Junaid Hussain, another British citizen who played a senior role in the Islamic State as a hacker. Hussain was killed in a drone strike in August.
