In a rather unsettling incident in Minnesota, a local family with young children found themselves the target of an anonymous threat last month. The note ominously stated, “The children look delicious. May I have a taste?” Understandably disturbed, the family reported the incident to the police and shared their experience on a neighborhood Facebook group to alert others.
Following this chilling encounter, the family began receiving magazine subscriptions addressed not to them, but humorously to “your tasty children.” This bizarre turn of events prompted further alarm in the community.
Family’s Response
In a direct response to the sender of the note, the family took to Facebook, firmly stating: “To the person who wrote that letter, the answer is NO! You cannot have my children in any form. You do not have the right to disrupt their sense of safety and joy. What you can do, however, is turn yourself into the authorities or seek help for your harmful urges. The children in this community are not your property.”
Investigation and Arrest
Investigations revealed that the origin of the magazines and the threatening note could be traced back to a 38-year-old neighbor, Sarah Thompson, who was reportedly fed up with the noise of children playing nearby. Instead of addressing her concerns directly, she chose to express her frustrations in a far more sinister way. CBS reported that Sarah was arrested and now faces charges for making terroristic threats and stalking. She claimed her actions stemmed from the noise and the children occasionally leaving items in her yard.
Community Impact
The note’s circulation on social media stirred a wave of unease among the neighborhood’s many families, leading to heightened vigilance. As of now, Sarah has been released, and the case is still pending.
