In a social post on X on Thursday, ФХФА Директор Билл Пулт said a fired Фредди Мак employee who was arrested in March for threatening to blow up the Freddie Mac building in McLean, Virginia has continued to contact him. It’s Pulte’s first public statement on the incident since the woman’s arrest.
Пулте posted: “Recently, a fired Freddie Mac employee was arrested for threatening to blow up the building I was in at Freddie Mac. She was arraigned and her sentencing is next week. She has continued to contact me. I’d like to thank the Law Enforcement agencies for moving swiftly.”
It was not clear if Pulte was thanking law enforcement for acting quickly at the time of her arrest or if they had intervened more recently.
Maria Del Carmen Lopez Lozano was arrested on March 26 by Fairfax County Police who charged her with making a bomb threat and trespassing.
According to a story on Breitbart, Lozanno wrote several social media posts on March 25, including one that threatened to “blow everything up in Freddie Mac right now so they know this is real and not fake. Give me a few more minutes and I will blow up this mother ****** building at Freddie Mac so people know that this is real and not fake.”
The next day, Lozano was caught in a traffic stop after posting a video live stream while she was driving near the Freddie Mac building, during which she identified herself and made the bomb threats.
Daily Mail published Lozanno’s Facebook video which contained the threat, along with some confused ramblings about Freddie Mac “hacking the brain” with her help. Breitbart’s article says Lozano continued to make threats on social media after she was released from police custody on March 27.
It’s unclear what prompted Lozano’s threats. Pulte has made sweeping changes at Freddie Mac, including firing top executives on March 20 and ordering employees to return to work in person, but in her video Lozano said Freddie Mac hadn’t paid her in two years.
