It is a charge that is NOT a state law, BUT IS a Federal charge under the DHS. Jeesh......like trying to get a cat to understand the theory of relativity. Sorry, but many states have a "Terroristic Threat" Law. Most are related to terrorizing a person, and predate Homeland Security. New Jersey's is typical: Terroristic threats 2C:12-3. Terroristic threats a. A person is guilty of a crime of the third degree if he threatens to commit any crime of violence with purpose to terrorize another or to cause evacuation of a building, place of assembly, or facility of public transportation, or otherwise to cause serious public inconvenience, or in reckless disregard of the risk of causing such terror or inconvenience. b. A person is guilty of a crime of the third degree if he threatens to kill another with purpose to put him in imminent fear of death under circumstances reasonably causing the victim to believe the immediacy of the threat and the likelihood that it will be carried out. L.1978, c. 95, s. 2C:12-3, eff. Sept. 1, 1979; L.1981, c. 290, s. 15, eff. Sept. 24, 1981. http://www.jfrlaw.com/criminal_statutes/2c123.htm Georgia isn't New Jersey. |
