Have you been accused of a Terrorist Threat?
A terrorist threat is considered to be a crime that involves a threat to commit violence communicated with the intent to terrorize another, to cause evacuation of a building, or to cause serious public inconvenience, in reckless disregard of the risks these threats cause. It may also mean to recklessly endanger another person, harassment, stalking, ethnic intimidation, and criminal mischief. The criminal statute specifically refers to Any person who willfully threatened to commit a crime that will result in death or great bodily injury to another person, with the specific intent that the statement is to be taken as a threat, even if there is no intent of actually carrying it out, which, on it's face and under the circumstances in which it is made is so unconditional and immediate that it causes the person to fear for their own safety or immediate family's safety.
Because of the reckless disregard for the risks caused to others and the fear they create, those who are accused of these crimes often face severe penalties and punishments. If you are under investigation for a terrorist threat crime, it is important to consult with an experienced Los Angeles criminal defense attorney who can safeguard your rights.
