In Finley, North Dakota, Jesse Lee Pierce is facing multiple serious charges after allegedly firing shots on September 12th, then violently resisting arrest by headbutting a deputy and threatening to kill everyone involved—including the officer’s family. He also claimed ties to a Mexican cartel, though investigators found only one shell casing despite security footage showing four shots fired. He reportedly went gun in hand to a neighbor’s door while kids were inside, and though his blood alcohol level was .123, drug tests came back clean. Now in custody, he’s charged with discharging a firearm, resisting arrest, hindering law enforcement, and two counts of terrorizing—with more terrorizing charges possibly forthcoming.
