LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – A Las Vegas man was arrested last month for making antisemitic and terroristic threats online, a new arrest report reveals.
Michael Tomasino, 39, was arrested in his Henderson home on March 12, 2025, by Southern Nevada Counter Terrorism Detectives with Las Vegas Metro Police. He is facing a charge of making terroristic threats.
Tomasino was linked to a comment made online the day before, which contained threats against the Jewish community and slurs.
When approached by detectives, Tomasino “did not hesitate or deny posting about killing Jews or his distaste for the Jewish people,” according to an arrest report.
Tomasino also told officers he posted antisemitic comments daily on an anonymous forum site, which he described as a “horrible place.” He also said his feelings stem from current events occurring in the United States.
Detectives noted that Tomasino admitted to having a shotgun in his home, giving him the means to possibly act out his comments.
Jewish Nevada and the Anti-Defamation League provided the following statement on the incident:
Court records show Tomasino has pleaded not guilty to the charges. He has also posted bail.
He is due back in court on June 16.
