Trans Activist Avoids Prison After Threatening To Kill Congresswoman

A South Carolina man who admitted to threatening to assassinate Republican South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace will avoid prison time after receiving a sentence that includes house arrest and probation.

Samuel Theodore Cain, a biological man who identifies as a transgender woman named “Roxie Wolfe,” posted to X on April 26, 2025, that he was going to assassinate Mace with a gun, according to a May press release on Mace’s website.

“I’M GOING TO ASSASSINATE REPRESENTATIVE NANCY MACE WITH A GUN AND I’M BEING 100% DEAD ASS,” Cain posted, according to the press release.

Cain was arrested in May 2025 and attempted to bond out three times but was consistently denied and was brought to tears as a result, The Post Millennial reported.
