A Florida woman was taken into custody this week following an incident at President Donald Trump’s Mar‑a‑Lago estate, where she approached the property armed with a handgun, insisting she had an urgent message for Trump.
Palm Beach police identified the suspect as 49-year-old Caroline Shaw of Orlando, Florida.
Shortly before 10 p.m. Monday, Shaw arrived at the south gate of Mar‑a‑Lago in her gray Mercedes van.
She informed Secret Service agents that she needed to speak directly with Trump, who was not on-site but in Washington, D.C.
After exiting her vehicle, Shaw was stopped at the security checkpoint. During the investigation, agents discovered a handgun inside her vehicle, which Shaw admitted was hers.
Authorities later took her into custody.
Court documents show Shaw’s Florida driver’s license had been suspended since April 2023 due to unpaid traffic tickets.
Additionally, her vehicle registration expired in December 2021.
She was charged with misdemeanors, including driving with a suspended license and failure to register a vehicle.
At her first court appearance on Tuesday, Shaw pleaded not guilty before Palm Beach County Judge Donald Hafele.
Judge Hafele also issued a protective no-contact order barring Shaw from communicating with Trump or visiting any Trump-owned properties, including Mar‑a‑Lago.
Palm Beach police submitted a petition under Florida’s “red-flag law” seeking a risk protection order that would temporarily prohibit Shaw from possessing firearms or ammunition for up to one year.
This law is designed to prevent individuals who may pose a danger to themselves or others from accessing weapons, according to Trending Politics.
This incident marks the latest in a troubling pattern of security breaches at Mar‑a‑Lago, highlighting growing concerns over the estate’s vulnerability amid heightened political tensions.
Last month, 23-year-old Anthony Thomas Reyes was arrested after climbing a fence at the estate.
Reyes reportedly told authorities he intended to marry Trump’s teenage granddaughter, Kai, and desired to “spread the gospel,” suggesting his intentions were rooted in a mix of personal fixation and religious zeal.
He was initially held on a $1,000 bond, which was later increased to $50,000. Trump was again in Washington during the event.
Earlier, in April, Adrienne Tajirian of Pennsylvania was caught attempting to enter Mar‑a‑Lago, claiming she sought dinner with Donald Trump Jr.
She pleaded guilty and was sentenced to probation, according to TP.
Security experts have noted that Mar‑a‑Lago’s unique mix of private residence and frequent high-profile events makes it a persistent target for trespassers and threats.
Past incidents have included attempts to smuggle classified information, unauthorized drone activity and infiltration by foreign nationals.
The surge in breaches coincides with rising political tensions nationwide and concerns over the safety of public figures.
A separate high-profile incident occurred recently when Ryan Routh was arrested for attempting to assassinate Trump at a West Palm Beach golf club.
Trump’s team has not released a public statement regarding the incident.
The growing frequency of security violations at Mar‑a‑Lago underlines the challenges faced by authorities tasked with protecting high-profile political figures, even when they are not physically present on-site.
