A TikTok star with a troubling online history has pleaded guilty in a federal courtroom. On April 9, 2026, Daniel Larson admitted in a Colorado federal court to the transmission of threats involving interstate commerce, which was the result of a years-long series of threatening posts which involved buildings, governmental institutions and a federal law enforcement officer.
Larson is accused of creating prank content by threatening to bomb an airport.

As reported by Dexerto, prosecutors have indicated that they would not object to the petition of a time served sentence because Larson has been in federal custody since April 30, 2024. As part of the agreement, Larson also renounced most of his rights to appeal and admitted to forfeiting the property related to the investigation such as a cell phone confiscated in the process.
Court filings revealed that there were numerous threatening messages posted on various dates, including an incident where the police had to attend to a bomb threat that had been reported in a facility in Colorado. The whole building was evacuated and the entire area was searched. However, no bombs were found.
