Prosecutors: This time the young woman actually said she had a bomb
Jennifer Douglas, 28, is charged with making a false bomb threat by walking into BU's Mugar Library with two boxes and telling an employee she had a bomb yesterday evening.
The library was evacuated as the Boston Fire Department and the police bomb squad investigated. They eventually concluded the library was safe to re-open. The Daily Free Press reports the boxes contained a cuckoo clock, a framed picture and newspapers (it also published a picture of the boxes).
The Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports Douglas was arraigned this morning in Brighton District Court and was sent to the Eric Lindemann Center in Boston for 20 days to determine her competence.
Douglas could get between 2 1/2 and 20 years in jail, depending on the nature of the charges brought against her.

Ha ha, what an authentic performance! The stupid artist, in response to her faux-bomb-threat, received a faux-response from the Fire Department and Bomb Squad, as well as faux-arrest from the Police, followed by a faux-arraigned and faux-evaluation. If she's found competent, she may even win a 2 1/2 all-expenses-paid role in "Prison! The Musical".
