GrammaCrackers Swatted: 81-Year-Old Minecraft Streamer Reacts To FBI Raid At Her Home

Popular Minecraft streamer and YouTuber Sue Jacquot, better known online as “GrammaCrackers,” was unexpectedly swatted at her home after authorities responded to an alleged tip from an anonymous viewer.

Swatting is a form of harassment in which false emergency reports are made in an attempt to trigger a large law enforcement response at someone’s residence, often targeting online creators and livestreamers. In this case, the incident reportedly happened while the 81-year-old was in the middle of a Minecraft streaming marathon.

Unlike any young streamer on the internet, Sue Jacquot a.k.a. GrammaCrackers a.k.a. is an elderly woman from Arizona. She began livestreaming Minecraft videos on YouTube in January 2026, and her channel quickly gained popularity.

Jacquot has said her motivation for streaming is to help support cancer treatment costs for her grandson, Jack, for whom she also launched a GoFundMe campaign. According to Jacquot, her grandchildren introduced her to Minecraft in 2025, inspiring her to create her own gaming channel.

With a fundraising goal of $250,000 for Jack’s treatment, supporters have already contributed roughly $63,000, according to the campaign. Jacquot currently has more than 600,000 subscribers online. In addition to Minecraft, GrammaCrackers also streams games such as Roblox and Fortnite.

It was on May 18 that Sue Jacquot’s home was swatted. Authorities reportedly responded to her residence in Phoenix with nearly 20 police vehicles, multiple FBI SWAT officers and drones circling the property after an alleged prank report from one of her subscribers. Despite the frightening situation, Jacquot later approached the ordeal with humor.

On May 19, Sue and her grandson publicly addressed the incident. Jacquot described the experience as “fun” while explaining how calmly she interacted with the responding officers. The elderly content creator said she had been preparing for bed when law enforcement entered the home.

According to Jacquot, officers escorted her and her grandchildren outside while they searched the property. She later said she felt protected and cared for throughout the process, adding that officers treated her kindly during the response. Jacquot also praised authorities for handling the situation carefully and not disturbing her streaming equipment or cameras.

Once they left, GrammaCrackers reportedly took a regular dose of her Ibuprofen and went off to sleep. Recalling the incident, Sue Jacquot remarked, “They walked me out, and I didn't know what was going on, but it was kinda fun. My grandkid and my kid were hugging me – you can't get that much attention normally. I was really eating it up. It was kinda fun.”

She further added, “Then I got to ride in a police car. I've never ridden in a police car before. Then it was all over, so I thought 'Well, I've gotta go to bed', so I took an ibuprofen and went to bed."

While the old woman has chosen to deal with the ordeal hilariously, the incident has, however, raised a broader question of harassment of online streamers. Not just GrammaCrackers, several other online content creators have frequently raised an alarm on how a niche internet prank has gone on to become a major safety hazard for individuals.
