Secret Service Warns Stand-Up Comedian After She Posted Video Of ‘Beheaded Trump’

BySwarajya Staff

Kathy Griffin, an American stand-up comedian, who posted a video of President Donald Trump's severed head, apologised after the Secret Service came knocking. It indirectly hinted that she will be investigated for threatening the president.

Griffin was seen slowly raising Trump's head during a photo-shoot with the infamous photographer Tyler Shields.

According to a report in the Daily Mail, the controversial comedian tweeted, “I am sorry. I went too far. I was wrong” after the severe backlash she faced from both, Trump supporters and the Democrats.

She also posted a video promising to remove the offending image after she was lambasted by all sides of the political spectrum, including Chelsea Clinton. According to the report, her long time co-host Anderson Cooper also lashed out at her photo shoot, which he described as ‘clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate.’

The Secret Service made an oblique reference to the controversy on Twitter, reminding everyone that any threats against the president are taken seriously.
