Man Who Threatened to Decapitate Hawaii Congresswoman is Captured in Mexico

By Malia Zimmerman - HONOLULU – The former Hawaii resident who threatened to decapitate Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard was arrested Wednesday in Tijuana, Mexico, by Policia Estatal Preventiva, Baja California State Police Fugitive Unit.

Aniruddha Sherbow, who was turned over to FBI agents in San Diego, Calif., will have his initial court appearance on Thursday in San Diego, before he is transported to Washington, D.C., to face the outstanding charge of “transmission of threats in interstate commerce.”

The team that searched for and ultimately captured for Sherbow after he made the threats against Gabbard on August 1 and August 3, included Policia Estatal Preventiva, Baja California State Police Fugitive Unit; U.S. Customs and Border Protection, San Ysidro; U.S. Marshalls Service, District of Columbia; U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of Columbia; and the San Diego and Honolulu Divisions of the FBI.

A federal arrest warrant was issued in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after Sherbow sent an extensive email to FBI agents and the media that said: “I, Aniruddha Sherbow, with the Divine as my witness, do hereby solemnly vow to find Tulsi Gabbard, wheresoever she may be, and to sever her head from her body.”

5. Sounds like a religious wacko. Good thing they caught him.

6. Definitely wacko, but I don't think religion is the root cause

According to the article, he volunteered to work in Tulsi's city council office as what appears to be a PR specialist. She told him no, so he decided the only thing he could possibly do was to cut her head off. This sounds like a real-life Rod Serling script.
