This case is not concluded. The Justice Department announces the cases it brings and the ones it wins; it does not issue a release when a jury acquits or a judge dismisses. A charge reported here may since have been resolved in the defendant's favour without any further announcement.

More on this incident

Logan Murfin, of Skiatook, Oklahoma, has been to over online threats against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, according to reporting by okcfox.com and ktul.com. The outcome was announced on August 10, 2026. Both outlets report that the government said Murfin posted threats on the social media platform X to kill ICE agents, including posts about "gunning down" and shooting agents, under the username "Azulenq" and from his home in Skiatook. okcfox.com further reports that data presented to the jury showed Murfin posted the threats from his home, and that after his arrest he admitted to creating the posts; ktul.com's account of the government's allegations does not include those details. The two accounts otherwise describe the alleged conduct in the same terms. Homeland Security Investigations investigated the case, according to both outlets. Neither report states the counts on which Murfin was convicted, the court that imposed the sentence, or what conditions, if any, follow the prison term.

How we work

This site models an investigative reporter rather than a wire desk. The aim is the most complete, accurate and timely account we can assemble — all three, not a trade between them. Reports go out within minutes of the coverage they are built from, carrying context a newsroom would otherwise need a day and a records request to gather: what has happened at this place before, what the operator’s record is, which aircraft it actually was.

Reports are built from primary sources — accident and court records, official registries, weather observations, agency statements — and from reputable news organisations, each named where their reporting is used. Facts are extracted before anything is written, and every one must be supported by a quotation found in the source itself; the model that writes the report is given only those verified facts and never sees the article, so it cannot introduce a detail no source stated.

Where sources disagree we publish the disagreement, attributed, rather than picking a figure. Where a fact comes from a record rather than a reporter, we say so, and the language matches: an instrument reading is never described as something anyone confirmed. Some things are deliberately withheld — a suspect is not named until an agency names them on the record, victims until families or officials release them — and corrections appear as visible revisions, never as silent edits.

None of that makes a report true. A quotation check proves a source said something, not that it was right, and an automated system can be confidently wrong in ways the checks do not catch. If something here is wrong, the feedback above is how it gets found. The full methodology, including what we refuse to publish.
