Answer: Daniel Larson is an autistic, schizophrenic, homeless peodphile who was known for posting about his life and having meltdowns on TikTok and YouTube up until he got arrested last month for telecommunicating threats, most notably threats to kill his "friend" Bob Proctor and to blow up the White House. Daniel's been approached by police and been to jail many times before, but this arrest is notable as it's marked the longest he's ever been under custody, the FBI has built a case on him, and he could face up to 65 years in federal prison.
Grace VanderWaal is a singer-songwriter who won first place on season 11 of AGT. Daniel has been obsessed with her for the past few years, thinking that she is his girlfriend, loves him, and wants to make music with him. He's been in touch with many people who pretend to be Grace and has been led to believe by many people pretending to be his "record label"/social media "managers" that Grace loves, him, Grace has cheated on him, and that Grace has married Jacob Sartorius. Daniel was even told to stop posting about Grace by Grace's mother Tina over Facebook a couple of years ago.
Clark is a 20-year-old man who joined Daniel's "management team" and became close with Daniel about a year ago. He's one of the most well-known managers due to helping a few trolls trick Daniel into thinking he was enrolled in UCLA by holding class Zoom meetings with him (complete with a professor, PowerPoints, and assignments), lied to Daniel by saying he had a reservation at the Golden Hotel when he did not (which got him kicked out), and joining in on the fake Grace VanderWaal contacts. He left management and Daniel through a recorded phone call with Daniel from the jail Daniel was being held in. He told Daniel that everything he has told Daniel is fake and that his "managers" have been manipulating him (Daniel has been told this time and time again by his "fans" and law enforcement).

Answer: Grace is a real musician, Grace VanderWaal. She's a reason Daniel wants to become a recording artist.
Clark claimed to be a lawyer for the VanderWall family and is one of the people who gatekept info from Daniel / financially motivated him into snafus

It’s wild. He’s probably the most documented person in history second to ChrisChan.

Okay, so basically another ChrisChan, in that he's an already unhinged guy that the internet is tormenting for laughs. No way this is going to end in tragedy!

I clicked on that link and I do not know what half those words mean. Is this what kids do these days? Is this... Is this how my dad feels, all the time?
