Greene’s Georgia home has previously been targeted with swatting incidents. Most recently, her home in Floyd County was swatted over for a fake crime on Oct. 25, 2022.
“The caller wants to have their victim murdered by police,” Green wrote at the time. “But it is also a giant abuse of police resources and time, which is another reason it is a serious crime.”

Swatting involves someone posing as the perpetrator of a crime, prompting law enforcement to respond to the home of the impersonated individual.
During one swatting incident against Greene, an individual impersonated a transgender person, falsely claiming to have shot their family and intending to end their own life.
Local law enforcement officials passed on this information to the FBI, but no arrests were made, as reported by Fox5 Atlanta.
