A woman who assaulted a former U.S. attorney on live TV and was released without bail may be heading back to jail after violating her court-ordered no-contact terms—by continuing to harass him publicly on social media.
Key Facts:
- Emily Gabriella Sommer was arrested May 22 for spitting on former U.S. Attorney Ed Martin during a Newsmax interview.
- She was released the same day without bail, with court orders to avoid all contact—direct or indirect—with Martin.
- This week, prosecutors say Sommer harassed Martin on X, using racial slurs and tagging him in posts.
- Sommer is also accused of attacking federal marshals during her arrest, spitting and kicking them.
- Judge Jeanine Pirro, now U.S. Attorney for D.C., has asked the court to revoke Sommer’s release.
The Rest of The Story:
Emily Gabriella Sommer’s May 22 arrest stemmed from a brazen act caught on camera: she interrupted former U.S. Attorney Ed Martin during a live interview and spit on him.

Afterward, she proudly claimed responsibility on X and continued to target Martin online.
Despite the seriousness of the assault, the court released Sommer without bail.
But prosecutors now say she violated the clear terms of her release by continuing to tag and harass Martin on X under the name “lefttits.”
In one message, she hurled slurs and threats: “I’ll make sure [this city] eats you alive and spits you back out.”
Prosecutors also revealed Sommer assaulted law enforcement during her arrest, kicking and spitting on two Deputy U.S. Marshals.
Judge Pirro stated there’s “clear and convincing evidence” that Sommer violated release terms and cannot be trusted to follow court orders.
Commentary:
This case is about more than vulgar language or a single spit—it’s about accountability and public safety.
Sommer’s actions show a deep disregard for the law and for basic civility.
That she was released without bail after physically assaulting a former federal official was already a questionable decision.
Since then, her behavior has only worsened.
She didn’t just disobey court orders—she flaunted it.
Her posts were filled with hatred, threats, and bile, designed to provoke and humiliate.
That level of aggression is not free speech; it’s harassment.
Let’s be honest: if the roles were reversed—if a man had assaulted and then threatened a former federal prosecutor online—he’d likely still be in jail.
Justice must apply equally, and protecting public figures from targeted threats should be non-negotiable.
Sommer is not just a political agitator. She’s someone who assaulted a government official, then doubled down by assaulting officers during her arrest.
She has now taken her rage to the internet, taunting the very people trying to enforce the law.
It’s clear this isn’t someone who made a bad decision and regrets it. It’s someone who thrives on chaos and enjoys defying the system.
Given her behavior is all documented, there’s no question she is guilty of violating her release terms.
The right response now is simple: revoke her release.
Put her in jail until trial.
And if convicted, she should serve real time.
Not because of her political views, but because her actions prove she’s a danger—to others and herself.
The Bottom Line:
Emily Gabriella Sommer crossed the line from protest to criminal behavior and shows no sign of stopping.
Her release conditions were lenient, and she blew right through them.
There must be consequences.
Failing to act would send a dangerous message that political rage justifies violence and threats.
The court should revoke her release immediately—for her sake and the public’s.
