One of the stupidest bomb threats of all time.

Are you frustrated with your job? Things not going the way you want them to? Well, we don’t have any solutions for you but we can advise you on how not to deal with that situation.

From our friends at the Henry County Sheriff’s Office…

On Monday, November 9, 2009, at approximately 8:38 a.m., the Martinsville and Henry County 911 Communications Center received a bomb threat. The caller, a female, spoke briefly to the 911 Dispatcher and quickly ended the conversation. The female caller stated she had put a bomb in a building located at Stanley Furniture Company, located at 1641 Fairystone Park Highway, Bassett, VA. The female caller appeared to be upset over company layoffs.

A search of the facility found no such device. The investigation is continuing. The Virginia State Police and the ATF assisted in the investigation. Anyone who makes a bomb threat is in violation of the Code of Virginia, Section 18.2-83, a class 5 felony. Anyone who may know the identity of the female caller reporting the bomb threat is urged to contact the Henry County Sheriff’s Office at 276-638-8751.

    I was eating breakfast when I heard this and just about spit my cereal out. The woman was so calm; she was probably close to the police station when she did this!!! She wins the Dumb Ass of the Day Award!!!
