Criminal Threats

The Cochran Firm

Criminal threat is a term that is used to describe the act of issuing an illegal threat or threatening to kill or harm others.  The people who most recognized for issuing criminal threats are terrorists as they are known for hoping to obtain certain outcomes by threatening others with violence.  Examples of criminal threats include, but are not limited to:

• bomb threats
• sending menacing or threatening letters to organizations or companies
• threatening others with violence based upon their religion, race, political beliefs or sexual orientation
• threatening to cause another person harm or injury
• threatening to kill another person

In the state of Texas, anytime a person issues a threat that is considered criminal, law enforcement agencies will intervene.  Texas law enforcement does not allow people to threaten the safety and well-being of others.  Whenever a person threatens another person, they will be charged with crime of criminal threats, which can lead to jail time, fines, community service and/or probation if the person is convicted.
