Got Arrested?
In todayās society and in light of recent current events making a terroristic threat is a very serious accusation and should be handled with the utmost care. Consequences can range from significant time spent in a state prison, fines, and a criminal conviction permanently on your record.
A terroristic threat charge can range from a Class B misdemeanor to a third-degree felony in Texas, carrying significant penalties that can permanently impact your record. Understanding the specific legal definition and your defense options is crucial for anyone facing these serious accusations.
Under Texas Penal Code § 22.07, a terroristic threat is defined as a threat to commit any offense involving violence to any person or property with the intent to cause fear, cause the evacuation of a public place, or cause a serious public inconvenience. However, the charge can be elevated depending on the circumstances. A threat made against a family member or a public servant can be a Class A misdemeanor, while a threat that disrupts public transportation or a public utility is a third-degree felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison. An experienced attorney knows how to challenge the state’s evidence and prove that your actions did not meet the legal criteria for a conviction.
