Receptionist charged with making bomb threats

A defense company receptionist was arrested and charged with making numerous bomb threats to defense and homeland security contractors because she was bored at work, according to charging documents. Latoya Bridgeforth, a secretary at L-3 Communications, called in numerous bomb threats to tenants of the office building at 80 M St. SE, according to documents filed in federal court. In one call, Bridgeforth allegedly tried to disguise her voice as a male stating, “My wife left me, I’m going to bomb the building.” The office building was evacuated and cleared by law enforcement on several occasions. – Scott McCabe
