Detroit Woman Gets 18 Months’ Probation for False Bomb Threats to Lake Shore High School

Prosecutors say she twice called in threats after her daughter was barred from a school play under illness rules.

Overview

  • She was sentenced Jan. 8 in Macomb County Circuit Court after pleading guilty in November to false report or threat of a bomb, a four-year felony.
  • The probation term begins with 14 days in the Macomb County Jail, with credit for three days already served.
  • Conditions include no contact with victims, advance notification before entering school grounds, and completion of an impulse control class.
  • Authorities evacuated more than 700 people from Lake Shore High School on March 12, 2025, and police found no explosives after a search.
  • Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido said the offense prompted a significant emergency response and caused community disruption even as the court imposed probation.
