Girl wants to see BF says she's going to kill all on ship

What an idiot... I hope he at least had a big dick and gave her good orgasms.

Quote:
Young Fools in Love

A young woman who wanted to leave a cruise ship to return to her boyfriend is charged with threatening to kill everyone aboard the ship to cut the 10-day cruise short. Crew members found two handwritten notes warning that if the ship docked in a U.S. port, the nearly 2,400 passengers and crew would all die. Authorities diverted the ship and searched it for biological, chemical, radiological and explosive weapons, but nothing was found. Kelley Marie Ferguson, 20, confessed, saying that she didn't want to go on the cruise with her family, so she wrote the notes hoping that they would shorten the cruise so she could rejoin her boyfriend. She was charged with two counts of threatening acts of terrorism. Each count carries a maximum prison term of 10 years.

Chuck her in jail, let her stew there for a while. And by a while I mean 20 years. What a dumbass, some people have no concern for other people.

Ahh, memories. I was so glad to see my love after those 5 to 10 years. Violent prison sodomy can never replace the feeling of your soulmate in your arms.

True, but its the same thing as not being allowed to yell "fire!" in a crowded theater. I think charging her with "threatening acts of terrorism" is rather steep, but what she did was wrong. Sounds to me like she needs a good dose of common sense, combined with some thought for other people.

first of all.... how did the crewmembers happen to stumble across those notes.... she most likely had them in her room in her luggage or something, i doubt she left them out.... so the crewmembers should not be tresspassing in other peoples property.... they are just words of a young girl who most likely always gets what she wants, and if she doesn't she throws a fit, so she threw a fit this time.... and looks like it went too far... i personally don't think she should get jail time...

I was thinking about this earlier today and this is what I came up with.

There were 2400 people who wasted a full day out the their vacations. For many, this is the vacation of their lives. They had saved for years to be able to take this cruise. They were not just able to enjoy the ship like a day at sea. No, they were isolated in controlled areas of the ship, I am guessing like in a lifeboat drill, but for hours while the ship was searched. That is more than six and a half years worth of meaningfull life that was forever stolen from these people without even counting the crew. That is the very minimum amount of time she should spend in jail.

This is a good question. If they just found it in her room then I don't think she should be punished. I mean if she wrote in her diary or something how she would kill all these people and then they found it in there and did this yea.. That was ment for her eyes only HOWEVER if she DID in fact send them to someone (anyone) then I wouldn't mind seeing her serve somewhere in the range of 3 to 5 years. Anything more then 5 is really excessive.

What I got out of the article was that the girl wrote the notes anonymously and left them somewhere on the ship where others would find them. She then confessed after the ship had docked to be searched.

When the words are threatening the lives of an entire cruise-ship full of people, it goes beyond the protections of free speech that the constitution provides.

if you said the same things about the President of the United States, you'd be picked up just as quickly. Words have to be taken seriously at some point.

I remember some called on Howard Stern one morning threaten the President, and they warned him about it. A couple of days later he was found and arrested. Unfortunately too many morons have ruined it for the majority of people out there. I remember missing plenty of activities at grade school all because of one idiot.

Holy shit! Christina?? Was that you on that ship??? That chick sounds like one of the very first girls I dated. HORRIBLE BREAKUP. PSYCHO GIRL. After I broke up with her (because things just "weren't going to work longterm"), first.. she threatened to kill herself. NEXT she threatened to kill my new girlfriend who I got several weeks after the breakup, then she threatened to kill ME! Jezzus.. that girl needed some meds and a psychiatrist. Glad I haven't seen her or heard from her in about 6 years.

If I called your mom, sister, wife, or daughter up, and told them that I was going to cut them up into little pieces and feed them to my pet iguana. Especially if they looked out the window and saw me talking on a cell phone. You wouldn't have a problem with that? What I said is a little more graphic, but it's basically the same thing, it's a threat to take someone's life. In this case, 2400 people's lives. With the person obviously in direct proximity, because they left the note on board...only people able to follow through on the threat can leave the note. Although even a letter or a phone call from someone far away is still a crime, the close proximity for me is what changes it from a crackpot loony to a serious threat. By law though, I don't think it matters if they're standing next to you or half a continent away. If someone in another state called my wife and said that I'd call the cops, if someone outside my house did it I'd shove my shotgun down their throat and pull the trigger till I ran out of shells.

What gets me is that this girl is actually a woman, she's 20, this sounds like something that a 14 year old love struck teen would do. Poor guy that she's in love with, in the end she probably won't even want him. Most of the girls I know that went to prison, came out of prison more interested in other girls than guys.
