A woman in Massachusetts has been taken into custody for allegedly threatening to kill federal agents during an immigration arrest near a Boston-area courthouse.

Bethany Abigail Terrill, 37, faces charges of making threats against a United States official following an incident at the Malden District Court in Medford this past September, as announced by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts on Thursday.

According to the allegations, Terrill intervened as agents were conducting an arrest, becoming verbally aggressive and attempting to disrupt the process. She is accused of making threats to the federal officers involved, claiming she would kill them, as reported by the Attorney’s Office.

The Attorney’s Office further reported that Terrill allegedly shouted, “Charlie Kirk died, and we love it… We’re coming for you, gonna kill you.” This confrontation was reportedly captured on both the agents’ body cameras and Terrill’s own mobile device.

Terrill was set to make her first federal court appearance in Boston on Thursday. If convicted, she faces a sentence of up to 10 years in prison, three years of supervised release and a $250,000 fine, prosecutors said. 

In a charging document, an FBI special agent investigating the case wrote, “On September 29, 2025, Special Agents from Homeland Security Investigations (“HSI”), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), collectively ‘the Agents,’” were “working collaboratively as part of a multi-agency effort to support ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (“ERO”) in effecting the arrest of Person 1 in the vicinity of the Malden District Court.” 

The agent described how Terrill was allegedly “belligerent and became increasingly aggressive throughout the entirety of the interaction.”

“Terrill proceeded to yell profanity at the Agents, addressing them as ‘Nazis’ and ‘disgusting’ several times. While agents were leading Person 1 to the car, Terrill yelled, ‘Charlie Kirk died, and we love it… we’re coming for you, gonna kill you.’ One FBI Agent, who was initially walking in the opposite direction of Terrill, heard the threat, turned around, and approached Terrill to detain her, to ensure that she did not have a weapon or other means to immediately carry out the threat,” the document said. 

“As the FBI Agent attempted to detain her, Terrill was actively resistant and fought to escape, requiring three additional Agents to assist in placing Terrill in restraints. At one point, Terrill, who was wearing long acrylic fingernails, hooked her finger on one cuff to prevent the Agents from latching the second cuff onto her wrist. The Agents repeatedly told Terrill to undo her finger, and Terrill remained resistant and non-compliant and continued screaming,” it continued. 

“Once the Agents were able to handcuff Terrill, they stood her up, attempted to calm her down, and informed her that they were seizing her phone, which they believed had evidence of her threat. Terrill repeatedly denied she made any threatening statements and told the Agents to play the video from her phone so that it would not be detained,” the charging document also said. “The Agents replayed the video for Terrill and confirmed that it clearly captured Terrill threatening to kill the Agents.”

The Attorney’s Office also said that while allegedly disrupting the arrest, Terrill “began screaming, ‘ICE is here, ICE is here,’ ‘You guys are monsters, this is insane,’ ‘Sir, what’s your name, what’s your name,’ ‘I can try to help you,’ and ‘I am an American civilian, I have a right to be here’ as she continuously pushed into agents all while filming them.”
