According to a criminal complaint filed in federal court in San Antonio, FBI Phoenix alerted FBI San Antonio of Gomez’s concerning social media activity. The teen — who presented online as LatinoZoomer or MestizoZoomer — allegedly shared a warning on July 18 to his Instagram account that the first day of the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit (SAS) would be "the day of retribution."
