Korby Aaren Strube is jailed without bond in Palm Beach County after investigators said his social media threats included Ben Shapiro. The 29-year-old from Horton, Kansas, now faces 23 counts tied to written or electronic threats to kill or cause bodily harm.
Palm Beach County records
Records show the case moved from online posts to criminal charges after Secret Service agents visited Strube at his home last month. Investigators said he admitted posting the threats on social media during that visit.
The affidavit says the posts named President Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benajin Netanyahu, Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro. That list turned one set of online statements into a case spanning political and media figures, with the charge count set at 23 rather than a single allegation.
Ben Shapiro threat details
The Shapiro allegation is the most specific part of the filing. Investigators said Strube included a countdown to an apparent target date and referenced Shapiro’s Jewish faith in the threat.
The affidavit also noted that Strube showed signs of paranoia. That detail sits alongside his reported admission, leaving the file with both a confession to posting the threats and language suggesting a deteriorating mental state.
For now, the immediate consequence is Strube’s detention without bond in Palm Beach County. The record does not add a court date or another step, so the case now rests on the 23 counts and the contents of the affidavit, including the threats tied to Ben Shapiro.
