The State Attorney’s Office for the 10th Judicial Circuit filed a “no bill” order on Feb. 14 for the charge against Briana Boston. The Lakeland Police Department arrested Boston on Dec. 10 on a charge of written or electronic threats to kill or do bodily injury. Police said Briana Boston ended a call to Blue Cross Blue Shield with, “Delay, Deny, Depose,” the words allegedly written on the bullets that killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson the week before her arrest.
Blue Cross Blue Shield sought the dismissal of charges
“You people are next,” Boston said next, according to the arrest report.
“My client is 42, married mother of three. Never had any criminal charges or convictions. May you release her on her recognizance,” her attorney, Jim Headley, told a judge during her first court appearance in December.
She was later granted a pre-trial release with bond.
The charge of written or electronic threats to kill or do bodily injury has been dropped, according to court documents filed Thursday.
