Henderson Man Sentenced for Bomb Threats

Posted/updated on: October 10, 2010 at 7:25 am



HENDERSON — A Henderson man found guilty of bomb threats gets ten years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice system, probated for the full period — plus 180 days in jail as a condition of probation. On Thursday, following thirty minutes of jury deliberation, 20-year-old Lorenzo A. Luna had been convicted on three counts of felony terroristic threats for phoning in the threats to Henderson High School. Authorities say Luna phoned in three bomb threats, on Aug. 27 and 28 and on Sept. 1. Henderson High School was on lockdown and evacuated all three times. No bomb was found. The jury didn’t buy the defense contention that the bomb threats were merely pranks and thus only constituted misdemeanor offenses. Each charge carried a sentence of two to ten years in prison or two to ten years’ probation.
