Summary
A 53-year-old woman from County Antrim faces serious charges after allegedly making a hoax bomb threat to a hotel housing asylum seekers, triggering panic and evacuation fears during local unrest. Authorities linked the call — made from an iPhone found at her home — to her residence via cell site analysis. Despite the defense’s request for bail under strict conditions, the judge rejected it, citing her extensive criminal history, including over 100 prior convictions, and her recent completion of a community service order on the same day as the alleged offense. The judge stressed the deliberate targeting of the hotel as part of broader protest activity, and she remains in custody, with her next court date set for July seventh.
