Woman Charged With Bomb Threats Against Gulf Power

November 26, 2013

A Santa Rosa County woman was arrested Monday on federal charges for allegedly making bomb threats against Gulf Power.

Eboni Parker, age 33, of Milton, was charged with two counts of maliciously conveying false information of a bomb threat, according to United States Attorney Pamela C. Marsh, Northern District of Florida.

A two-count federal indictment alleges that on January 30 and February 20, Parker used a cell phone to make the false bomb threats to the Milton office of Gulf Power.

Parker was in federal court Monday for her initial  appearance and arraignment before U.S. Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Timothy at the U.S. District Court in Pensacola. Parker pleaded not guilty to  the charges and her trial is scheduled for January 6, 2014, before Senior United States District Judge Lacey Collier.

Parker is facing a maximum sentence of ten years and a $250,000 fine on each count.

    CONTEMPLATING:
    “They should be giving Gulf Power 10 years!”

    Interesting thought.

    Gulf Power is the share holders, the officers, the linemen, the secretaries, the janitors and everybody else working to deliver the electrical power I am using to write this. So if we jailed all of Gulf Power, we would be sitting here in the dark wondering if that had been as good an idea as some think. (would we jail the equipment too??)

    What’s more, who would come to take their place knowing people of peculiar mental states were jailing them indiscriminately?

    I’m not even sure what the charges would be against any of them — that they wanted to be paid for energy used??

    Not good. These are federal charges not the county court stuff. 10 years max for two threats.
