The FBI says it has arrested a Massachusetts woman in connection with a hoax bomb threat against Boston Children’s Hospital.The FBI, U.S. attorney for Massachusetts, and Boston Police announced at a press conference Thursday that Catherine Leavy, 37, is facing federal charges in connection with a bomb threat at Boston Children’s Hospital in August.
U.S. Attorney Rachael Rollins said the threat was received over the hospital switchboard by phone. According to Rollins, the caller told the operator who answered the call, “There is a bomb on the way to the hospital. You better evacuate everybody. You sickos.” Authorities responded immediately, Rollins said. Rollins said the Boston Police bomb squad responded without finding any explosives.
Lucky for us, these right-wingers are not too bright in that she used her own cellphone to make the threat.
Rollins said that investigators obtained warrants and tracked the call to a T-Mobile phone owned by the suspect. Officials said her arrest was “without incident” at her Westfield home.
Nationally threats against medical personnel is increasing.
The attacks against the hospital began when far-right provocateur and transphobe Chaya Raichik, who runs the Twitter account LibsOfTikTok, unleashed her more than 1.3 million followers on posting information about the hospital and encouraging anti-LGBTQ+ sympathizers to aim at the institution.
I think that the provocateur should also be arrested for incitement to violence. I don’t think she will be the last to make threats against us and there will be more violence against us.
Gays Against Groomers, yes they are real folks, Billboard Chris and others just held a demo at the Boston Children's Hospital. Here is what the Boston Globe said, "A handful of protesters opposed to the services Boston Children’s Hospital provides to transgender patients faced off against hundreds of counterdemonstrators along Longwood Avenue for several hours Sunday as heavily armed Boston police officers kept the two groups separate.'
ReplyDeleteHundreds of counter protesters were there from Trans groups to antifa. If you want to see video just google it.
I am Richard Nelson and I approve of this message and the counter protesters against hate.
