School Threats Are Taken Seriously | St. Louis News

As the school year begins, law enforcement is sounding the alarm on threats—whether online or in person—warning that any communication targeting schools is treated as a potential felony. The FBI and Missouri Highway Patrol are investigating every report, even if it seems like a joke, because these threats often cross state lines and require serious legal action. Missouri’s anonymous tipline Courage2report lets students report concerns without fear of retaliation. Authorities also urge students and parents not to screenshot or share threats online—go straight to law enforcement instead. Think before you type: one careless message can trigger a massive response with real consequences. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
