- A Peruvian man, Eddie Manuel Nunez Santos, has been arrested for sending more than 150 fake bomb threats to schools and various locations across the U.S.
- Nunez Santos is charged with sending threatening communications and soliciting explicit photos from a 15-year-old child online, posing as a teenager named “Lucas.” When the child and others refused his requests, he retaliated by emailing bomb threats to school districts, synagogues, airports, hospitals, and a shopping mall.
- The threats were sent between September 15 and 21 to multiple states, including Alaska, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Arizona. Federal authorities estimate that thousands of schoolchildren were evacuated in response to these threats. The charges carry a potential prison sentence ranging from 30 years to life. Read More
