Relating to bail in cases involving terroristic threats to schools or children

Summary

The law makes it a misdemeanor to knowingly report a fake emergency that could cause evacuations or summon fire, ambulance or police, and a felony for repeat offenses or when someone is injured. It also criminalizes communicating threats of violence that cause severe public alarm, imposing fines, prison time, and may bar the offender from living or working within 1,000 feet of the threatened location. Courts can order offenders to reimburse emergency agencies for any response costs they caused.
