An illegal migrant from Mexico who was arrested over a handwritten letter that threatened to assassinate President Trump may have actually been set up, law enforcement sources told The Post.
Mexican national Ramon Morales Reyes, 54, was taken into custody in Wisconsin after an ICE agent received the death threat letter on May 21, the Department of Homeland Security announced Wednesday.
But in a stunning twist, sources said a handwriting analysis has since shown that Reyes didn’t pen the letter — and the actual culprit may already be behind bars.
Authorities are currently looking into whether an already incarcerated perp may have written the letter to set Reyes up because the migrant is an apparent witness in that person’s criminal case, the sources said.
“The investigation into the threat is ongoing,” a senior DHS official said told The Post of the latest claims.
“Over the course of the investigation, this individual was determined to be in the country illegally and that he had a criminal record. He will remain in custody.”
The Wisconsin Attorney General’s Office wouldn’t comment.
The development comes after the DHS announced Reyes had been nabbed for allegedly declaring he wanted to “shoot your precious president in [his] head” at one of his rallies.
“We are tired of this president messing with us Mexicans – we have done more for this country than you white people,” the letter read.
“You have been deporting my family and I think it is time Donald J. Trump gets what he has coming to him.”
The final line of the letter stated: “I will see him at one of his big rallies.”
Reyes was collared a day after the letter was received, DHS said.
“Thanks to our ICE officers, this illegal alien who threatened to assassinate President Trump is behind bars,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said at the time.
“This threat comes not even a year after President Trump was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania and less than two weeks after former FBI Director Comey called for the President’s assassination.
“All politicians and members of the media should take notice of these repeated attempts on President Trump’s life and tone down their rhetoric. I will continue to take all measures necessary to ensure the protection of President Trump.”
Morales — who had prior raps for a felony hit-and-run and other crimes — entered the US illegally at least nine times from 1998-2005, according to DHS.
He remains in ICE in Wisconsin awaiting deportation, DHS said.
