James Lofton is facing federal arson charges, which accuse him of making threats at the same guardhouse four weeks earlier.
last week had made death threats at the same facility nearly one month earlier, federal authorities said.
According to the charges, four weeks before setting the fire, Lofton had approached the guardhouse and told the officer on duty,"B****, I'm going to burn you, and everyone is going to die. You f***ing Mexicans are going to burn and die."
