A New York mom is accused of threatening to blow up her kids’ high school after she found out her daughter had failed a major state test.
Karen Shearon, of Staten Island, allegedly told the guidance counselor at Susan Wagner High School “I am going to blow up the school,” after the counselor called to inform her of her daughter’s failing grade, according to a criminal complaint first reported by DNAinfo.
She was arrested yesterday for aggravated harassment in the second degree, but has not yet been arraigned. Shearon has not yet made any public statements.
