NAVASOTA POLICE ARREST STUDENT CHARGED WITH MAKING THREAT AGAINST HIGH SCHOOL
(Grimes Co. Jail)
Navasota police have arrested a student, reported to have made a threat against Navasota High School.
17-year-old Joseph Greenmun was arrested this (Thursday) morning around 6 a.m., charged with making a terroristic threat, a Class A misdemeanor. Greenmun was located and taken into custody before he left for school.
According to Navasota’s Communications Coordinator Emily Gainey, police received fifth party information that Greenmun had threatened “This is going to be a bad day”.
Gainey said Greenmun confirmed he made the threat while being interviewed by police. Investigation revealed he was the only one involved in the incident.
Police have been working with school officials, who said in a Facebook post that they learned of the possible threat early this morning. The post reads the school district is “working diligently with the Navasota Police Department regarding this threat and it is already being handled appropriately”.
Greenmun is in custody at the Grimes County Jail.
Well this is never a good thing, but to me it seems like we’re a little short on details. I know it says he cooperated, and pretty much agreed that he made a threat, but if all we are going to get is that he posted that today is going to be a bad day, that can mean anything. I’m not saying that he’s innocent or guilty, but a little more information would be nice.
I mean, I say that all the time; doesn’t mean I’m making a threat. Was it said in a malicious tone?
Is this right, he posted” it’s going to be a bad day”….this is like a syfi movie society we have then, thought police at work.
You’d be blaming the police for not having done enough if your kid was on a slab. It’s real easy to unarrest somebody.
Actually, you can’t “unarrest” someone. Even if the charges are dismissed or he’s found not guilty, he still has the charge on his record that will follow him forever, unless he spends the money to have it expunged, plus court expenses, jail time, etc.
