Woman pleads guilty to mailing threatening ‘voodoo’ letters

A 31-year-old Upper Marlboro woman pleaded guilty to sending letters threatening to inflict physical harm on a woman and her daughter through voodoo curses and spells, prosecutors said. Lakeisha Jones sent a package to the victims that contained a dead mouse and letters titled “Black Curse” and “Voodoo Spell” that described physical harm Jones would inflict on them. One letter described lewd sexual acts to be performed on the woman’s child and contained a hand-drawn depiction of the child being shot.
