Hazel Park junior high teacher sentenced for bomb threat
HAZEL PARK, Mich. (CBS DETROIT) - A Hazel Park Junior High School teacher has been sentenced to 14 days in jail and two years probation for failing to report a bomb threat.
Paul Jacobs, 40, of Livonia, was charged with a misdemeanor count of making an intentional threat to commit acts of violence against a school, school employees or students.
According to the Hazel Park Police Department, after the school day was over on Feb. 2, a staff member found a piece of paper that said the school would be blown up the next day.
School officials and police began investigating and discovered a teacher, Jacobs, knew about the note and did not report it.
Jacobs allegedly displayed the note so other people would find it.
