District attorney's office talks school threats

Local districts have been dealing with a lot of school threats recently.

In fact, at least four children have been arrested. Tulsa County Assistant District Attorney Erik Grayless has a warning for anyone thinking about making a threat of their own.

“If you threaten a school, we will prosecute you,” Grayless said.

The district attorney's office is so serious about these threats that Grayless was willing to get even more specific.

“You cannot post pictures of firearms on Instagram and reference your school,” Grayless said.  “That’s a threat.  The threat itself, regardless of your intentions, is a crime.”

KRMG's told that alone could lead to a misdemeanor charge and six months of jail time.
